Dennis:

Wonders never cease! Congratulations.  Yes, the same plug is used on the
late 60 hood as your late 70. There is one for the late 50 hood as well but
it is a different part number.

Guess what I got in the mail today. Jd part number AA5678R.. just what I
had been looking for to convert my All fuel hood to a Gas hood. Now it
will really look interesting and drive the "experts" crazy.. I have not
found anybody that even knew about them more than even seen one.. The
story on this part is a guy has a all fuel tractor and wanted my hood
but I requested a equal or better gas hood for the 70.. He could not
find one to match the condition of mine, then I find and old address  of
a guy who parts out stuff and ask him if he had a 70 gas hood.. He did
but it was for a early tractor not like mine the later version. A week
later he comes back and says he has another hood and sent me pictures..
Low and behold covering the small tank hole is the very gem I have been
looking for 3 years. So I struck a deal for the long hood to go to the
guy wanting mine and today in the mail shows up the little plug.. Some
days its nice to have Christmas early.  I don't have a 50 or 60 catalog
but does this part show up in those tractors also??
