    Fuel shutoff on a 620

    There are 2 rubber diaphragms inside that thing. You have to drain the fuel out, then take all the lines off,(use a tubing wrench on those little brass fittings from the oil pressure gauge). There are some screws that hold the thing together that you remove, and if you're not careful, the...

    So close to turning engine over overhauled engine-advice?

    Open up the petcocks to dry out the pistons, and pull the plugs and dry them out. I know this sounds pretty basic, but make sure the spark is going to the right plug at the right time. I had the distributor on mine turned 180 degrees and when I switched the plug wires, off she went. Also try...

    john deere a battery

    No heat in Hiniker cab

    flywheels balanced question

    Sorry, I didn't know where to jump in on the other conversation. If I need to replace the crankshaft on my '49 A, then I should do it with the original flywheel as well, or can I use the old flywheel with a strange crank?

    A leaking fluids internally

    I recently changed the oil in my A, and there was at least twice as much as there should have been. I put the whole thing aside for awhile and checked things today. The rear end is full of a watery oil that smells like gasoline. Where to look and what to do.?????
