Tommorrow I'll look and post my serial number. Tractor has the remains of red paint on it but you can also see where it was grey so I bet someone painted it red at one time. When I ran the serial number on this site it was 1936. Engine, toolbox, frame all match. I looked at the levers again and it looks like the govenor lever was ground off. Casting is there. Its in the lower position. It also has a rod beside the gastank which is connected to the govenor. You pull it out it revs the engine like a modern tractor. So both levers are connected to the govenor. You can turn the lever mounted infront of the mag lever with some plyers. I never tried it while the tractor is running. I use the rod with the teeth in it beside the gas tank. The rods that run down the hood are all original. The cast linkages have the IHC cast in them. If my camera still works I'll shoot some pictures. I'll need some help posting them on here. I'd like to see what govenor I have. I don't plan to change it. It works for what I do with the F-20. I'd love to have any litature on the F-20s. My email is Digger42071@yahoo.com. Email me and I can send my snail mail address if you want to use that. Oh I forgot to mention that my govenor doesn't have the bellos. I'll look to see if it ever had one. I know what they looked like I once had a F-14 with one still on it. I traded the F-14 to a guy on here for the F-20. The F-14 was stuck but a rarer tractor. I'm glad I did I like the F-20 better. More HP, easy to start, wider wheelbase. This F-20 is in nice shape. Looks to be sheeded all its life and taken care of. Its seen some work because some of the holes on its drawbar are eggshaped. It has F&H roundspoke wheels. What seat do you have on your F-20? Mine has a big spring and a shockasorber on it. It isn't too hard on my body but my 10 acre field is pretty smooth. These are duel fuel. Mine has 2 gas caps and twin fuel lines comming out of the tank. I take it you started on gas the opened up the other fuel line to burn keorsine then turned off the gas line. Mine has a gas manifold on it. Anyone run theirs on kero? I think I'll unbolt the pto lever and change it that way. I don't think I'll have an easy time getting the pin out unless I drill it. I may try to knock out the pin when I get a lever. If I cannot I'll change it the other way. This tractor came with a IHC Little Wonder plow. I'd like to try plowing this spring. Anyone have or know where I can buy a plow clevis to attach the plow to the drawbar? Thankyou everyone for your help Michael Hale Oh I like to talk about F-20s and other tractors also.

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
