    1950-51 8N whim purchase **OH BOY! IM IN TROUBLE**

    Your cast iron carb might be able to be freed up soaking in distilled vinegar. If you are set on running that aluminum carburetor you would be best off tearing I down and drilling all the passages to match the cast iron one. I did that to my aluminum carb'd 40 with a borrowed cast iron...

    Funk 8N Water Pump.....?

    Referring to Jim's post, keep the housing, bearing and press true. As I recall the ones I have done were fairly flat and thick housings. If you get ahold of an odd shaped pump with a thin housing you may be better off going to someone who deals with that pump. Chances are they'll remember how to...

    Funk 8N Water Pump.....?

    Have a bunch of sockets on hand. I haven't done my 226 yet but have done several others. It should be the same type seal/sleve combo that presses in.

    Pulled starter out, to see broken bendix gear in half

    #24 photo makes it easy to see how if the tractor was rocking with the nose pointed down could work that extra starter drive into the flywheel. Remember, the bell housing is part of the transmission case. See photo in post #5. EDIT: Bell housing doesn't swap out. I think it took me about three...

    Pulled starter out, to see broken bendix gear in half

    I went through this with a 40 9N with a loader. I had a strong magnet to pick up to Bendix but never could find a hole or angle big enough for it to come through. I spent more time trying to avoid spitting the tractor than actually splitting it. Only needed about 3" for the gear to fall out.

    Newer rims on a 2N with original ceters

    I bought some from Tucker about 2022 or so. All the weld beads needed to be ground down to fit the centers. If your interested take a look in the search bar for photos and outcome.

    Did you mean to post this on the 9, 2 and 8N site? Most just get the job done without posting. However you may find someone kind enough to teach some tactics if you read through these post. A trick I learned was not to yearn much for what the next fellow had or bragged about having. Let him make...
