Hi, P.J., sure glad to hear you are interested in the Essex TD. Of all the old time tractors listed on the YT Mag, the TD is probably the least mentioned and most misunderstood. Wish that I were as knowledgeable as some, like Alberta Mike and Clem, amoungst others. My recolections are limited to some of the change-ups made in later years to try to make this unit equal to todays equipment, needless to say that is only possible through regression, which totaly distroys the Essex's pristine background and unique capabilitys.

One of the more interesting capabilities of the Essex, was the ability to syphon fuel from unerlying deposits in the ground,[thus the previous note about the TD spewing fuel when not properely attended], this was accomlished by using a device called an "Interpolectatic Symposolater", "Type Three", the 'type three' was attuned to hi octane, low residual fuel, only. Whereas the type two and type one were used for regular fuel and diesel fuel in later and lesser models. Of course this device was used only where hi octane fuels were present underground, to circumvent this secound problem of regular fuel shortage, the "I.S." type three was fitted with an "R.G.E.", ["Restrictive Gravitational Eliminator"], [not to be confused with the "T.G.E.", "Total Gravitational Eliminator", which was used for negotiating realy narrow row crops, and hedgrows]. The 'R.G.E' made it possible to bring fuel along transgordial lines over vast distances of undisturbed vendestinal argrendulins.

In closing, I would like to deferr this discussion over to some other more knowledgeable people.... Alberta Mike? Clem? have a gooder, R.E.L.
