It looks like you have Exhaust Gas Temp ( EGT ) probes in the exhaust manifold.

A 440/21 uses short reach plugs, and the 440/22 uses long reach.

I would be interested to hear what those carbs are marked ( numbers on the back side of the choke plunger tower)

I bet the reason there was no cooling shroud on it is that the fan housing will not fit from a 440/5 to a 440/22.

When you are looking for parts add a fan housing and shrouding to your list.

Should be marked just below where the choke plungers go into the carbs on the motor side..

ok : Took some carb cleaner and some scrubbing but found the numbers on the carbs. JD 295 on both carbs. Would these be off a 295/s motor by chance :?:
I found the cylinder i need to replace the bad one, its on its way. Well this motor is really becoming a mystery. I will be tearing it down for new gaskets and seals and it need a good cleaning. What do you think?

interesting :think: i may have to call the guy i got this from and see if he can remember who he got it from and do some tracking to find out just where this came from or what the story may be. :cool:

Didn't the 21 motors have a single bearing on the PTO end of the crank and the 22's have a pair?

I imagine there may be some folks intersted in those 295 carbs !!
