[AT] Tractor PTO tire pump help needed

[Dudley Rupert]

Kevin,

The IHC parts catalogues for the Super A, Super H, Super MTA and W9 (and
probably other of their parts catagolues as well but I have no knowledge of
this) do show both the Engnair and Schrader spark plug hole pneumatic pumps
as being optional equipment.  IHC may have also made this pneumatic pump
themselves but again I have no knowledge of this either.

I saw a John Deere with a PTO driven pneumatic pump attached to it at a show
two or three years ago.  I don't know if Deere made this pump or if it was a
vendor supplied item.  This same PTO pump - assuming it was vendor
supplied - may have been sold by other tractor companies and painted with
their color but this is only a guess on my part.  I am also guessing that
this PTO driven pump is what John is talking about.

Note:  I ran this response by my attorney and he told me to include all of
these guessing and no knowledge clauses ...

Dudley

I have seen a Witte hit miss engine used as an air compressor, it pumped
150# pressure.  At a old time gas service station that folded up long ago.
But I remember the owner saying that the engine had never been run it was
bought to make air. I wish I had paid more attn to it, but then I wasnt
interested as much in antique engines then. But the item I think you need is
similar to what was in place of the sparkplug on that old Witte.
Didnt IHC make a air pump that used one of the engine cylinders with the
item in question and sell them as optional equiptment for the letter series
tractors ?
