    424 crankshaft pulley nut

    Just wondering . My tractor is about a 1965 model . The nut holding pulley on has an irregular shape almost as is if a crank would go over it and turn it . I know of no reference to these tractors ever being anything other than electric start . Does anyone have any knowledge ?

    F20 Farmall wont stay running

    Check your manifold I had one doing the same thing over 30 years ago. Found a hole rusted through the manifold between intake and exhaust. Look down inside your exhaust pipe my rust hole was the size of a dime. This would let fuel be sucked into to exhaust as it was running back firing and blue...

    Farmall F-20 - Unknown part

    Andy, Those style foot rest was on the old Regular's they were bolted to the right and left side of the trans. one each side down through the frame rails. I put a set on my 20 just because they are neat. The old Regulars did not have foot rest cast in the rear bolster like the 20's do. Have you...

    Andy, That is a road gear only not a overdrive, to work it put your trans. in neutral than shift that road gear in it's a 5th gear. I have three 20's one is a road gear like your and the other two have overdrives in them. Overdrives step up all the gears that gives you 8 speeds forward and 2...

    F-12 Farmall 1937, 1938

    Hi Andy, I thought that the steering wheel and steering rod on a f-14 angled up like the tractor on the left of your picture is it a f-12 or f-14? If it is a f-12 I have never seen one that came from the factory with the steering setup like that? The steering rod angling up is how I tell 12...

    an experiment that worked!

    BOBWA, I have a F-20 that has a elect. starter on it and the mag was modified like what you done. But a 6 volt coil was used, Who ever done it did a real nice job with a grommet where the wire came through for the points and a small machine bolt was double nutted for the coil wire to attach on...

    F-20 SICKLE BAR MOWER

    I have a sickle bar mower that came with a F-20 that I bought 40 years ago, I've never tried putting it on. This IHC mower was made just for F-20's I was told. The whole thing mounts a cross the draw bar some how? There's no rear wheel and it doesn't pivot at the draw bar like simi-mounted IH...

    BOB, I bought a 1937 F-20 in central Il. that runs good, with elec. starter, foot brakes, heisler overdrive, good tires, But it needed painted for $200.00 back in 1988.
