I just wanted to thank everyone for their help and tolerance. I've used what I have learned here at Tractorbynet, and mainly here with the kind folks of the Yanmar Board. Needless to say I am know the proud owner of a new to me tractor. I do have to admit (shamefacedly) that it is a Ford 1220. The price seemed right and it was in good condition I couldn't pass it up. On the bright side I did rescue this older darling from Kubota Land, as every property around it had a BX sitting on it.
Thanks again I start spending more of my lurking time over on the New Holland/Ford board now, but I still drop in for a read. You all have been excellent gurus.
