I've taken apart AC, IH, JD, MH, Wallis, Hart-Paar, MM, Aultman-Taylor, and assorted others from the pre-1960 era and found nary an o-ring seal or rubber fuel line anywhere. In your class they may even have told you that these old tractors were made to run on tractor fuel,etc. and to be careful because leaded gas would foul plugs. What school was this ? Do they have any published papers on E85 ? Did they teach you "bright headlights" how to spell ethAnol, or maybe they were right ethOnal is nasty?
Gary, what's the needle tip made of in the carb? I'm thinking it's usually rubber, but not Viton (which is resistant to ethanol)?
