WOW, thanks soundguy, for the detailed info, part numbers and all...
As to the older red ones, even if what I have is older, you'd think there would be some evidence of the re-paint work... I'll look closely, but I think I have one of the later ones. I need to look up the numbers on the tractor, see what year it is... I found a list of how to read them by searching here somewhere...
I took my exhaust pipe off at the end of the manifold... it's rusted out in the bend it makes to go up to the muffler. Looks like I'll need a new gasket at the flange from the manifold to the pipe... I'm gonna re-route the pipe down and under the tractor, I will be brush hogging under low hanging branches when I do get the ol' beast working good... no exhaust coming out of the hood will be better... have to find a muffler also...
