Merle:

Now that is really interesting. It has always been my understanding that the
all fuel JD's developed less HP when running on Distillate. Is Kerosene that
much different? Did your pull end due to running out of HP or traction?

Now I'm really confused again.  Normal for me I guess!  :-)

For the fun of it, I made a 1st pull with an "A" on gasoline, 2nd pull on
kerosene.  Pulled 4 foot further on kero.
