My serial is FA 38802. Looking at my F-20 and reading your email I have the original early govenor. Thats where my rod goes. It goes to the carb side into where the pipe makes a 90 degree and runs under the fan to the govenor. I'd probablly never find the rod with the lever for it to replace the one someone cut off but I'll look. Now I know what it does. I'll keep it in the lower position.
My dad bought a Regular back in the 80s for a few hundred bucks but never moved it. I wish he did it was in a bran and great shape. At the same time he bought a F-20 & F-30 from another guy which he got moved. He never did anything with the F-20 or F-30 they were stuck but all there. Soon people kept offering money for the F-30 as they are hard to find. He sold it. He kept the F-20 for a long time. My brother and I decided we wanted to restore it. It had a neet lift. I think its lift ran off the pto. Anyway he got hard up for money and someone offered him 3 times what he paid for it so it went. I recentally saw a lift selling for 1500 so I bet thats why someone wanted it.
After dad passed away I was cleaning up my place. A scrapper bought some junk I didn't want. He knew I liked old tractors. One day he called saying he picked up a steel wheel tractor and asked if I wanted it. I came over and looked at it and said yes we don't need to cut it up. So I traded it for a coffie grinder, remains of a 68 Ford pickup and a 50s gaspump. He brought it over and low and behold I had a stuck but all there F-14. I started looking for parts for my F-14 and bought a block off a collector who lives 3 hours away. I saw his collection and got to see his running F-20s. He wanted a F-14. Later he emailed me offering a trade. So I traded my F-14 and the remains of a cub I had for the F-20 with plow. True the F-14 is rarer than a F-20 but I like the F-20. My brother likes it also.
I'm still learning about them. What wheels they have. Brake levers etc.. I didn't know they had different govenors or seats. I seen a picture of one with fenders. I bet they are hard to find.
We had an auction here. The guy had many F series tractors. Most were rough. I wanted his F-14 that was in the barn. It was stuck but had matching numbers. The one I had the former owner removed the tag and the engine serial number was filed off at one time in its life.
The F-14 at the auction had a 2 bottom plow that could be lifted up and down attached to it. the lift ran off the pto. Everyone went wild and bid that tractor up to almot 3 grand. Too rich for my blood. Even the rough F-20s and F-30s went high.

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 ... [Read Article]
