Mark -- The air washer plugs are the same part number as the transmission fill plug and the large oil drain plug on the underside of your tractor (just off the top of my head I think the Fordson part number is S-254); if you have access to Fordson F carcasses you can cannibalize a couple, or, failing that, you can order them from The Fordson House in Escanaba, Michigan (http://www.thefordsonhouse.com) or Lang's Old Car Parts (http://www.modeltford.com) in Massachusetts. Lang's deals mostly in automobile parts, but they have a few tractor parts, and the plugs you need are among them. Part number at Lang's is F1884, and the last catalog I have from Lang's lists the caps at $25.50 each. Seems a bit spendy to me, but like a lot of things you'll see when dealing with restorations, the prevailing attitude is, "If you want it bad enough, you'll dig deep and pay up." -- Maine Fordson
