    8N doesn't turnover

    Gieger gave you excellent advise. If what he said does not work, try lightly tapping the starter with a hammer. Sometimes the brushes in the starter will hang up and not make contact, and tapping the starter will fix it. If this tapping solves the problem you more than likely, need to have...

    Follow Up on Loose Pulley Question

    Have you removed the belt and inspected as to whether the pully is loose on the crankshaft or is the pully just bent? If it is just bent (most likely) you are in luck. If it is loose enough to wobble on the crank you are going to be spending some money. Hopefully someone used a puller on the...

    Milky oil on the dipstick FORD 9n

    i don't think anyone has mentioned the possibility of a cracked head, which, I believe, is a common problem for these engines. To me it would be worth the time to pull the head and have it checked for cracks and then reinstall with a new Fel Pro head gasket. If it is cracked new ones are not...

    8N runs about 30 minutes then bogs down and won't keep

    I think you missed Bruce's point. There is a fast proven money saving way to trouble shoot a problem, and then there is the shot in the dark "could be crowd" which will take you forever and break the bank causing you to give up. I stand with Bruce and JMOR.

    1952 8N coolant in head, won't run

    Did you have the head checked for a crack when you had it resurfaced? It's the first place to look given what you describe. Water on the piston is [u:eb7e4c77e5]not going to prevent your engine from starting[/u:eb7e4c77e5] unless it is leaking so bad it is hydro locked and won't turn over...

    Starter - Broke off the battery lug!

    Bruce, what you say is so true. There was a time where you could get just about anything rebuilt in just about any town, not so lucky today. For all the bashing of foreign parts, there may come a day that is going to be all we can get and we better be thankful for it. I have been building...

    8n steering shaft (broken)

    Can you shed some light on how the shaft managed to break like that. Seems strange to me, how it seems to be all beat up. Also, I still think it would be an easy welding fix rather than spending $150 to $250 for a new one.

    One has to wonder how that happens. Time for a good welder.

    8N milky hydraulic fluid

    It would be interesting to hear how often other northern users have had to change their fluid. I guess the best practice would be to monitor the color of the fluid often. I suppose winter snow plowing use exaggerates the moisture problem.
