Working on the 753 today

Recommended Posts

ClassicTractorProfessor

Went and checked my mail yesterday and found a package...in it was the gas tank for the 753 I purchased from a member here, wasn’t expecting it to be delivered until after the holiday so that was a great surprise. Just ordered the fuel tank gasket from Lowell this morning, and can source the ammeter and sediment bowl here locally. I do however need both new throttle and choke cables (part numbers 4455 and 4456) Does anyone here know where to source those cables or a suitable replacement, or is everyone just using universal cables. Looks are not a big deal, I’m not restoring this tractor so it doesn’t have to look factory correct, just something that will function as it should
