    48 loader

    Will a model 48 loader fit on a 70? Aside from using low pressure cylinders, will there be any hydraulic issues such as valves for bucket? My kaput loader used a latch-type bucket and that's good enough for me. Thanks!

    Loader for narrow front 70

    My 45 loader suffered a catastrophic failure with the entire right side collapsing and breaking up. There was no other damage except to my T-shirt, which got torn up too. (Note: Never wash a work shirt, it might not rip off when caught by something.) So I'm looking for a loader. Are there...

    Oil into silicone?

    I use a galvanized container with a flex spout for adding oil to power trol, engine etc. It's kept in a plastic bag when not in use. The way it's "designed", you can't get about two tablespoons of oil out of it. This settles into the various seams, welds etc. The other day I discovered that...

    procedure for adjusting valves on a 1952 G John deere

    To get the tappets in position to adjust remove valve cover and spark plugs. Remove plug wires from magnito or distributor!!! This is to remove any danger of a spark which could light off fuel vapors pushed out of the plug holes. Turn the flywheel in normal rotation until the piston on the...

    Ignition switch

    I"m running down electrical bugs on a H, about a 1946. The ignition push-pull switch doesn"t "snap" into the on or off position. It sort of "oozes" in and out with enough drag to keep in in position. Is this normal with a switch of that vintage? If so, was there a reason for it? Thanks muchly!!

    OT shear bolt

    I got a new 6' "bush hog" type mower. I put a common bolt in the connection between the PTO shaft and the gearbox. I like to take the PTO shafts off of things for the winter and keep them inside, but the bolt has torqued just enough that I can't get it out easily. Could I safely go to a...

    50*?

    Been messing with a 46 H for a friend. It was an all fuel but the plumbing's gone for the little tank and it's run on gas only. As far as he knows, the carb hasn't been messed with, at least he's never messed with it. Problem is that if the temperature's under 50*F, it won't even try to start...

    Which is which?

    Working on the electrical of the H. Someone's painted the generator, looks like maybe a couple of times. Can't tell which terminal is armature and which is field. Has original pos ground 6 v gen. Can anyone tell me which is which? Which is closer to engine when it's mounted? Thanks a lot!!

    Intermittant discharging on H

    It's bone stock with mag and generator, + ground, no alterations ever. I've compared it with another late 40's H and they're identical. I'd wondered about the regulator, but have no idea what does what under the cover!

    OT-identify post hole digger

    Roger the photo suggestion. I am, however, not talented in that respect nor is my old computer here. RE: How it lifts--It's attached to the lower 3-point hitch arms and goes up/down with power-trol lever.

    OT-identify post hole digger

    I'm trying to rehab a 40-50 yr old mounted post hole digger. It mounted to the 3-point lower arms only of an A with brackets bolted to the drawbar frame. The brackets also were the attachment point of the lower 3-point lift arms and the digger mounted to horizontal pins outboard of the control...

    OT--metal cans?

    Has anyone purchased a 1-2 gallon metal fuel can lately? If so, where did you find one? I'll admit that the world has pretty much passed me by, but surely you can get one somewhere??!! Thanks!

    John Deere a down for the count

    Is it getting air through all the mud daubbers nests that shook loose when it was running?

    1950 JD B Tractor Pulley is Frozen on Crankshaft

    This happened on a 70 when I was a kid, and it was running when it "froze". An exciting time resulted.I have no idea how a B compares to a 70, but we got enough stuff off of the 70 to see the ball bearing that had seized. A long chisel and big hammer with many hot lubricating words were used...

    cracked flywheel

    I just discovered that the flywheel on my all fuel 70 is cracked "from one hole to the other" on one side of the hub. It's been that way for awhile judging by the rust accumulation. The ring gear doesn't track quite true, but very close. Flywheel is not loose at all. Can I just ignore it, or...
