Madison Co. Virginia
Red Paint, you obviously know these old fords, and while I don't much care for it, I've got one-- a tw-25.

You mentioned a separate oil reservoir for the injection pump. Does this still apply to the tw-series? I've never seen evidence of it.

I've put auto brake fluid in our tractor not knowing anything else. Where does it cause damage-- only in the master cylinder, or at the brakes as well? The bigger brother of our tractor had power brakes and just ran hydraulic fluid through them. Were the slave cylinders any different to handle the different fluid? What would happen if I put hydraulic fluid in my brake reservoir?

Does the dual power ever wear out to the point of slipping, or is all slippage because of leaks or other hydraulic problems?

Is the PTO brake really a big deal? Ours is pretty much worn out(it can take 30 seconds for a 15 foot bush-hog to come to a stop), but it doesn't bother me much.
