    Can someone direct me to the conversation where I can review installation of an Electronic Ignition for my front mount 1948 8N? (Ser.# 66103} Also, any pros and cons for the change over. I can't seem to get my tractor running smooth even with a brand new carburetor. Fuel is clean and flowing...

    WHERE does this gasket go? (Ft.Mt. Distributor)

    4 (four) front mount gaskets come in the pkg for my '48 8N distributor. Where does the "Cap Gasket" go? (The thin-narrow round one). I tried to add it to the distributor but then it wouldn't let the cap seat to the distributor body (Where the points and condenser are.).

    Carburetor re-build question

    Rebuilding my Marvel-Schebler TSX series carburetor. Which way does the VENTURI go into the body? I checked my FO-4 Manual but cannot tell from text or photos. (See Fig. FO51, pg. 40) One end of the VENTURI is flat ring and the other a trumpet shape.
