[AT] Fuel Usage

12kv will require approx 24hp at full load.  That is over half of your 
engine hp.  So I would look at a Nebraska test for your tractor at 3/4 
load and look at what fuel usage was.

I discovered a couple of days ago after being so disappointed with my 
JX85 Case/IH that tractors are now rated by engine horsepower, not PTO 
as they were in our old antiques....
