My '80 JD 950 has a pull/push control on the left side that links to the rocker cover. It appears to open/close something in each of the three cylinders. The farmer I bought the tractor from told me he never figured out what it did. I have gone through the operator's manual front to back and cannot find any reference. It seems to only be on the early production models. I have attached a JD Parts detail that shows the linkage (#24).
The control knob is similar to the old type choke control for carburetor, but of course the 950 has the three cylinder diesel Yanmar engine.
I don't want to ruin the engine by placing this control in the wrong setting. I would appreciate any help.
Thanks
