    can I weld a small bracket to the trumpet ends of the axle on my Ford 8N

    yes absolutely the chain would be nice to hold them down. and that is my plan but I guess my question best would be put as, can I weld something to the trumpet of the axle without causing internal damage. I want to just simply weld the chain to the axle trumpet so I can quickly and accurately...

    can I weld a small bracket to the trumpet ends of the axle on my Ford 8N

    I'm wondering if I can come up with a different system for my 1949 Ford 8N. the front loader operates by having the three-point hitch going full up position to about 90% which at this point is blocked with steel brackets. then I opened the valve to the front end loader and I can operate the...

    fuel sediment cup question

    yeah I have to take it closer look at the attachment to the tank. it looks like it's been either soldered or JB welded or something or other. takes away a lot of options

    fuel sediment cup question

    fuel sediment cup question

    thank you, normal operation is what I suspected and I appreciate the confirmation. definitely I suppose you are correct about the fuel sloshing about in the carb, it was the first time in 5 months she ever sputtered and lost power, it was only for a few seconds . this soil clods are so big it...

    fuel sediment cup question

    hi I still have another question about my 1949 Ford 8N that I have owned since last december. it has been running flawlessly, I have plowed a little over a half acre plot, and I was discing yesterday when the engine sputtered. I figured I should clean out the sediment bowl as I have noticed...

    1949 Ford 8N low oil pressure, what is the thickest oil I should be using

    Thankyou, a great bunch of responses ! The darn tractor runs so well I don't want to fool with it... it's 76 years old... I think I'll do as some mentioned and just keep running. It might outlive me!

    1949 Ford 8N low oil pressure, what is the thickest oil I should be using

    my 1949 Ford 8N new to me starts and runs apparently very well. I did some brush hogging today just under an acre of medium load brush hogging. at the end I noticed that even it over 3/4 throttle the oil pressure was only at about 10 and drops to zero at idle. I have put in 10w40 diesel grade...
