    Water in gas removal

    Same here. I've run 10% Ethanol since it came out in about 1980 in our area. Never had a fuel related problem. Never had to add HEET to the fuel. No frozen fuel lines in Montana, Colorado, Saskatchewan, Idaho. Works in everything I have: pickup, car, lawn mower, boat (yes, boat!). I guess I...

    Starter switch for Autolite starter

    Thanks for the advice. In the end, that is exactly what he did.

    Starter switch for Autolite starter

    The starting switch was missing from his tractor so I could not attach a photo. Thanks for the contact.

    Starter switch for Autolite starter

    I really wasn't trying to be dismissive. It just looked like it wouldn't fit without some modifications. There was no mount for the starting switch lever like the one in the attached photo. Also on the Autolite starter, the hot lead goes external from the switch and enters the inside of the...

    Starter switch for Autolite starter

    Here are a couple photos of the Autolite starter from a Model C. Not sure of the serial number of the tractor. Not sure how many tractors got the Autolite starter. It is clearly different from my Delco on my CA. Maybe a guy could cut the back side out of a CA switch to make room for that hot...

    Starter switch for Autolite starter

    That looks like it might fit a Delco, but the Autolite is quite different. I'll try to get a picture from him.

    Starter switch for Autolite starter

    Anybody have a source for the starter switch for an AC Model C with the Autolite starter? I have a friend in need. Did the C ever have a Delco starter? If so, can it be swapped for the Autolite without any problems? Lots of parts for the Delco; Autolite are scarce as hens teeth....

    Steering box on my CA

    Thanks for the response. Do you have any idea what tractor this may have come from? The four mounting holes may be a clue.

    Steering box on my CA

    I bought a CA to get running again. It has been modified by previous owners. One item that has me confused is the steering box. I don't believe it is a CA box but I don't have enough experience with these to identify it. It has some residual orange paint on it so I figured it is probably an...

    Correct paint colors for a CA

    Where can I find the correct paint colors for my 1952 CA? I see a lot of pictures with different schemes. I believe the front wheels are the Persian Orange like most of the rest of the tractor. I don't have the power adjust rear wheels. Looks like the rear rims should be some sort of grey or...

    A question about a CA engine identification

    OK so the size of my engine is 125. But the HP is a few higher that previous 125's. Where did they get the extra HP? I know the compression was raised to 6.2 CR. How did they get the extra CR...Heads? Pistons? Rods? Or something else? Bore and Stroke should be the same. Any info on this topic...

    A question about a CA engine identification

    I think I'll have to replace all of the sleeves and pistons. I was able to remove the sleeve with the stuck piston still in it. It is really bad, must have been full of water for many years. The head on that cylinder is also pretty rusted. One other sleeve is also rusted kinda deep. The...

    A question about a CA engine identification

    So I found another number on the block. It is on the back flange . CE161573PA. I understand the CE ###### is serial number but what does the PA signify? And thanks to everybody that commented. I think this rebuild is gonna be fun.
