    Ford 2N Generator pulley not spinning freely

    Hello everyone. I have a generator on my 2N where the pulley is not spinning freely. I can turn it by hand and then it gets pretty stuck resulting in the belt just burning up when it’s running. I see that there is a bearing behind and pulley and I assume that is what needs to be replaced at this...

    Burnt out points?

    Awesome I appreciate it so much. Just made one out of the old points and now I have continuity even when putting the coil back on so it looks like I’m back in business….once I get my gasket set for the distributor and then also new wires since one just crumbled in my hand when messing with it LOL

    Burnt out points?

    To add to this if I put the wires on the inside on the gold plate I do have continuity. I’m new to checking this kind of stuff out so I’m not sure if that’s normal or not. Is the copper strap the piece that’s attached to the point closest to the cam? If so do I just stretch it to the brass...

    Burnt out points?

    Alright so I got this distributor back off. When I’m checking for continuity from the brass screw to the body of the distributor I’m getting nothing with the points closed or open. I attached a picture of it incase you see something obvious that’s wrong.

    Meters coming from Amazon for 12 bucks and wires are true stainless steel cores

    Incredible information. I got new wires for the spark plugs coming because one of them was frail as could be and broke when I was messing around. Also have a multimeter coming. Should be here tomorrow so the journey will continue!

    Got everything put back together. Have power at the wire that attaches to the coil but still no spark at the wires. I’m guessing I put the distributor back together wrong and possibly have a ground inside?

    Burnt out points?

    Is this what bad points look like? Left the ignition switch on by accident last night on my 2N and have quickly learned it has caused an issue. My issue im having now is no spark. Should I change the points and condenser?

    Maybe I misspoke. I really meant if I’m cruising along my property and have the blade raised, with a solid hydraulic system, I should be able to raise and cut off the PTO and the blade should stay up. On mine when I have it up and I’m going from one part of my property to another and I have the...

    Is there a chain kit that I should get for a 2N or do you just rig up something?

    The tractor actually came with a ORC on it which was awesome and saved me some money! I’m going to stick to my blade for now and get used to the tractor. I’ve already been able to do a ton! Open back up a driveway, pull and push debris and pull fallen trees out of the woods. Thank you though...

    Hello everyone! I am new to a 1944 Ford 2N. I’ve noticed that with my back blade on that once I disengage the clutch or shut the tractor off, if the PTO is fully lifted it leaks down after about 5-10 mins. It doesn’t really bother me. I guess the only time that it would be a pain is if I hooked...
