If I remember right that is a WD45 tractor engine so many parts are the same as the WD45 tractor |

The Model D was built from 1949-1965, and used the 226 cu in engine- same as the WD45, or 226 power unit. 58 brake hp. D-3842 is a 1954 model. There was also a "gasoline special", which had larger tires as well as a hyd operated blade circle. |

Just a tip. If you find you need to replace the plugs use NGK3112s they seem to work better with this alcohol gas we now have |

I no longer have my D grader or any of the related data or I could tell you exactly the year from the serial number. I guess the mid 50's but I am certain that someone that has the serial number listing will come up with an exact year. |
