Jim, If you can't find an older style NAPA-1101 or WIX-51101 on the shelf somewhere, try AC-C412. That's AC as in AC Sparkplug. I used to use the C412 years ago but began to have trouble finding them locally and switched to the NAPA-1101. FRAM-C159 is also a direct replacement and is the "old style", so I am told. I am also of the understanding that the filters you get from AGCO (Allis #840912) are now the correct "old style" after AGCO got the problem squared away with their supplier. I am told AGCO is offering free replacements for the "new style" ones they unknowingly sold previously. I am going to be searching the local market for AC-C412 or FRAM-C159 before my next filter change. I will visually verify the "old style" before purchase. AGCO doesn't have a local source for me so if I can't get anything locally, I may wind up getting some from them via mail. At least they know the problem and presumably have it resolved. There has been a lot of chatter and complaints about the NAPA filter causing low oil pressure in the AC vintage tractor community over the last several months. That is what caused me to look into it myself...I needed to verify the claims/concerns to my own satisfaction. Lots of posts on this subject on the "other board" that is dedicated to AC tractors. I would link you to it here but this site will not let me do that due to sales competition. You may already know how to get there anyway. If you do, just do a search on "oil pressure" or "NAPA" or "oil filter". You'll find plenty or reading on the issue. Good luck. Rod

Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
