| Not certain about this but I thought all distillate units had a small gasoline tank to start on then switch over when warmed. Should be under hood on rt side I think. Don't think you can start on distillate alone.: |

I would think the "starter fuel" tank and the "K" after the engine serial number would be the only way from the owners manual-  ------------- Allis Express North Georgia 41 WC,48 UC Cane,7-G's, Ford 345C TLB |

I think also a K manifold unless it’s been changed. Isn’t needed unless you plan to use distillate. ------------- '34 WC #629, '49 G, '49 B, '49 WD, '62 D-19, '38 All Crop 60 and still hunting! |
