plug company, a badly clog
ged tractor air filter not only
can cause the entire set of
spark p ugs to become car
bon fouled, but also may re
sult in diluting the crank
case oil as well as in the for
mation of sludge, piston var
nish and other gummy de
posits within the engine.
Why? Because a clogged
fi ter prevents the engine
from breathing the way it
should and results in not en
ough air reaching the com
bustion chamber to burn the
gasoline completely. The in
comp ete combustion causes
an excessive build-up ol car
bon in the engine which col
lects on (he firing ends of the
plugs and causes them to
“misfire”.

Also, since a clogged filter
causes less air to enter the
engine, you may find you’re
pending more money for
gasoline, but getting ’ess

mixture than it should.
Just how often a tractor
air cleaner should be servic
ed depends on the type of
conditions the tractor is op
erated under. However, you
might keep in mind the fact
that there are over a mil ion
particles of dust in just one
cubic inch of air; also the
fact that over a thousand cu
bic feet of air are required
to burn a single gallon of
gasoline. Then, it’s easy to
appreciate the enormous a
mount of dust which must be
removed from the air before
it enters the tractor’s engine
Remember, dust and dirt
in an engine mix with the
oil to form a grinding com
pound which works on rings,
valves and cy inder walls
just as effectively as a piece
of emery cloth)
The air filter on your trac
tor has the task'of removing
the dust from the air before
it enters the carburetor. It
does this by emp oymg either
a paper type element or an
oil mesh elementTwhich traps
the dust but allows the air
to pass through.
As the filter remains in
use however, it gradually be
comes c ogged with the dust
and dirt it removes from the
air, making it more difficult
for- air to pass through.
Eventually, air flow thru
the filter is reduced to the
point where the engine simp
ly can’t get all the air it
needs for efficient combus
tion and, hence, the gasoline
doesn’t burn completely.
This, of course, results in
side the engine and on the
spark plugs, Since carbon is
high’y conductive, the p ugs
And, since carbon is highly
conductive, the p ugs may
misfire if the deposits are
sufficient enough to allow the
high-voltage electricity to
'Teak” awoy before it jumps
the spark plug gaps
If aT the spark plugs in
vour tractor’s engine contain
b l ack carbon-hke deposits,
have the plugs thoroughly
cleaned in an abrasive spark
plug cleaner by your neigh
borhood garagtman And be
ure to check <he air filter
before considering the instal
atmn of “hotter” spark
plugs
If you’re storing much
dtractor gas around the farm,
ie l ter remember to drain
md clean the storage tanks
°t least once a year to re
move sediment and metal
chips which flake off the in
side of the tank
Tilting the tank or drum
s’lght’y to the rear will pre
vent the residue from collect
ing near the spigot Also,
make sure you cap the hose
nozzle when not in use to
keep dust from getting into
'he tank.
