Now I am going to confuse you even more. The 47 year was split between two versiond, the earlier being a angle type of frame and was only made as an all fuell model meaning it was designed to be used on herosine but started on gas and the small tank was for the gas. Then mid 47 year they went to the pressed steel frame and still kept the all fuel model but very few of them were built, they at that time brought out the gas only tractor that was 38 hp instead of the 29 hp in the all fuel tractors. Now the first gas tractors they kept the 2 tanks using the small one as reserve (the all fuel tractor if you ran out of kerosine you could go back to the starting tank and go back in for refueling. Later they went to a single larger tank on the gas tractors and forgot about a reserve tank. That was about when they went to the single lever tranny and slower speeds, yours would have a 2 stick tranny and a low gear equal to the second gear in the single stick models. Now question is do you have a angle frame or pressed frame? Then you can follow up on if gas or all fuel to know what tank was for what. As for telling you if the pressed steel frame would be gas or all fuel I do not know how to do that. But you NEVER put diesel in one as it is too oily that it will foul out the plugs like if you were burning a quart of engine oil an hour. The kerosine or as was called distulate did not have that oil feel. Had 38 A, 46 B, 49 B, 50 AR & 51 A. The 38 & 46 were all fuel and the 49, 50 & 51 were gas tractors.

Today's Featured Article - Harvestin Hay: The Early Years (Part 2) - by Pat Browning. The summer of 1950 was the start of a new era in farming for our family. I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! 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
