Like Old said you have to get the vinegar off. Or it will continue to rust from the acid in it. Wash them just like you have been and then dry well. The bit of flash rust you worry about is not a problem if you wipe it off with a dry rag then coat parts with an oil.Setting in Diesel fuel would stall your rust problem while working on them and would give them a coating of a very light oil when out to work on so the rust would not advance. OR of there is no rust on the carbs you are working on at that moment, just omit the vinegar for those ones. As for that light flashing of rust all cast iron will do that, if cleaned down to the raw iron, and not dried immediately. Then a coat of oil wiped on it. I washed an Engine block with a steam cleaner one time to get the grime off from it and by the time I was done and dried it off the cylinder holes were rusting like you describe. I just wiped them dry and oiled was no problem that way and the ruse wiped off from the bores with the rag as I dried them. IF you get them cleaned down to the raw cast iron it is pretty hard to prevent that unless you can have a very dry arid climate to work in.

It has great power for its size and can really hunker down and lug. Classified as a 3-bottom plow depending on soil conditions. I personally don't think it can be beat for a utility tractor in the 40 HP range. They are extremely thrifty on fuel, at least my DSL is. Most drive train parts are fairly easy to get. Sheet metal is probably the hardest thing to
