[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4161766, member: 5412"] Not gas, but diesel. I was at a farm auction several years ago when the first 4wd diesel tractor ever sold in Oklahoma went up for auction. The auctioneer said it had been stored since the 50’s when a newer tractor had been bought. As they were towing it to the sale, they decided to open the pet cock on the fuel tank and make sure it was not locked up by pulling it. The fuel for lube if it did turn over. Not only did it turn over it started on fuel from the 50’s. They used another tractors battery’s but did use the electric start to get it running for the auction crowd. It sold for more than the original purchase price. [/QUOTE]
