Unfortunately the older grease cart with the fitting was sold off with the rest of the items. I did order the adapter online that will fit on my normal grease gun, so thank you for the info!Yes forgot to talk about the grease. I am guessing to late to look around for grandpa's bucket grease gun. Because he sure had one if he really used old Cat's. Just look up Alimite grease fitting and figure out what size is on your tractor. Then use a regular grease gun and buy "corn head grease" in the tubes. The seals on the roller will blow out at a very low pressure so don't use a battery powered grease gun. Just pump carefully and at the least amount of resistance STOP.
It seems your dad and grandpa would of had it greased before storage so maybe just a few pumps so you know there some in the roller would be good for several hours of putting around.

Not getting consistent good spark at the plug. Points were set 0.020 per manual.When you checked for spark were you just looking at the points themselves or at the electrode on the spark plug itself? I have had a few points/mags not produce any spark at the points and have good spark on the spark plug. If your points are gapped correctly try it and see what it does.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
