QUESTION: Why do some F20s or Regulars have brass nuts on the manifold, but some have steel? Were the brass manifold nuts ever from the factory?
We made the junkyard run today (that is where husband found the brass manifold nuts on a couple tractors - so we nabbed them of course).
Could not have been a better day! About 70, sunny, blue sky... in a big old junkyard listening to an oldies country show; hangin' with the guy I like most in all the world and takin' pics of junk. I think I got some great pics - and the mostly dead vegetation will look cool with the rusted iron. Too tired too look at them today. Shot about 750 frames - then HE PUT ME TO WORK harvesting some nuts/lock-washers/bolts. I even got my leather gloves greasy and rusty! He said, "There, that'll make your little secretary arms tired." IT DID! On the big bolts, had to have him break loose for me before I could get them off - just not tough enough to overcome 80 years of rust.
Wish we could do today all over again!
Anyway, time to head to the shop and look over our treasures, listen to tunes and hang out with our kiddles.
Will post a few pics soon. Could see A LOT of stuff today, that I could not see due to vegetation this summer.

And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
