V i Is it the perfect kerosene carburetion? Is it because of the strength of the Ford magneto? NOTE: The Ford magneto is the only magneto in the world which furnishes electric current enough to fire the motor and light three to five lights at the same time. The secret of strength of the powerful Fordson is not in these alone but is also in the fact that the Fordson has the only truly efficient type of final drive. The only gear which changes the direction of your power and at the same time gives you a maximum speed reduction and this at a minimum of loss by friction.
