[Farmall] Down hill foul

[BIRDDOG]

10-4, Jim.  Staying warm.  Had my truck inspected at 8 am.  Shoveled out 
the 1" of snow after that.  Very light stuff when it falls at 13 
degrees.  Pretty much loafing since then.   Waiting for a Dr. call on 
some tests taken the other day.  Backing down the hills is OK with me, 
but Frank is the man who has to buy the plan.
I doubt he will.

I would ask Frank if the plugs appear oil fouled or gas fouled when he 
takes them out?  That might be a clue toward a cure.
