MY 147 is 386177 with a two dipstick K321.
Spec6099A
Serial 3056892
The 6099 and 6099A are the same engine except the A means special oil pan, correct?<!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote>
Kendal H.,
Thanks for your "dual tube" info!
-- Your tractor ID # 386177 would indicate a April, 1971 manufacture date.
-- Your engine serial # indicates it was also manufactured in 1971.
-- I haven't been able to determine just what the significance is of the 'A' at the end of the
<font color="0000ff">Spec #</font> 6099A.
Although the data table does indicate that 6099 refers it to being a Replacement/Universal Service engine.
I think you're thinking of the 'A' at the end of the
<font color="ff0000">MODEL #</font>. IT is the 'A' at the end of the
<font color="ff0000">MODEL #</font> that indicates a 'special oil pan' engine.
<font color="aa00aa">Was your MODEL Number K321 or K321A?
Is your engine data tag a sticker or a riveted plate?</font>
Don B.,
Thanks for your "dual tube" info!
-- Your 147 tractor ID #388343 indicates it was manufactured in April of 1971.
-- The engine Model # K321A. The K321 indicates a 14HP engine and the 'A' indicates it was equipped with a special oil pan.
-- The engine Serial # 4378068 indicates an engine manufacture date of 1972.
(Hmmm, now how can that be - the tractor was made at least 8 months before the engine was made? I would guess that the tractor had an engine change with a newer engine intended for tractor use.)
<font color="ff6000">Don, Would you mind looking again at the ENGINE SERIAL NUMBER to make sure it is 4378068. Maybe the four should be a 3?
Also, is your engine data tag a sticker or a riveted plate?)</font>
-- The engine Spec # 60166d indicates the engine was intended to be installed into a tractor. I don't yet know the significance of the 'd'.
