Was on a roll with the CA today as we have a show coming up this weekend so I decided to take a stab at the crawler. Replaced the missing gasket in the carburetor last fall but the battery didn't have enough umph to roll it over.   So today I cleaned 1/4 inch of varnish out of the sediment bowl, dug around in a drawer for the least misshapen sediment bowl gasket, used the battery out of Ford and after cranking for less than a minute we're out playing in the yard.  Couldn't remember how to get it up out of first in to reverse so it's "Yard Art" tonight.

Move the shifter slightly to the left and sort of rotate to the right and pull back (shifter lock is prob engaged) in to neutral then all way to the left and forward.

Looks like nice yard art! Great feeling to spend some time on getting a tractor running.
I had a chance to play on my off color TD6 IH this past weekend. The work that I did to make it easier to start was worth it. Good luck with the M. Friend of mine has one of these little cuties too.
Regards,

Mark, I was going to message you yesterday but knew it was midnight your time. Thanks.
I intended to make Republic last year and missed it, I think I have a flyer for it in the office in Adrian. I'll talk to Brian this weekend.
I still don't have the right clutch repaired so reverse is important.
