    Where's the oil?

    What about the cooling system via a crack or gasket failure? Did you look in the radiator?

    Cracked Block Question

    I was showing my 9N which is for sale and the guy pointed out it had a cracked block. I had noticed it before but thought it was just a rough place on the casting. It"s about 2 and 1/2 inches long on the left side by a drain valve. I know it has been there every since I brought the tractor in...

    PTO log splitter

    I looked at that super splitter and the videos appeared to work the man to death IMHO. I split wood for an outdoor wood furnace that's 26 inches long and 24 to 36 inches in diameter. I don't think this splitter would touch that size of wood. In the video they seemed to have a lot of trouble...

    1999 1720, Ford, 4WD with front loader bucket and trailer

    I appreciate your feedback but disagree with 28HP and 4 WD tractor not being big enough for landscapers. I don't know what they won't do in MA but in VA they will do it all for landscaper.

    1999 1720, Ford, 4WD with front loader bucket and trailer

    How much is the above worth in good shape and 250 hours of service. The trailer is a 1999 Hurst 10K tandum axle. I'm thinking around 12K. What say you? Thanks

    carb main settings

    Same here. I kept having to hold the choke out and thought it was just because of the cold. Then when it got warm I found my self still holding the choke. Then I moved the big screw about 1/8 and all was fine. Thanks for the explanation. I was hoping it wasn't something bad starting to...

    OT Any Smokers?

    I feel your pain. I smoked for 25 years and chewed for 15 years so I could stop smoking. I stopped chewing last June. I miss it every day but like the money I'm saving. Waistline is growing more though. Good Luck. I think cold turkey is the only sure way to do it.

    9N Choke

    My choke lever won't stay out unless I hold it. How is this supposed to work and am I missing something or do I need to adjust something. Thanks.

    Starting 9N below 20 degrees F

    9N wouldn't start last Saturday after another 12 inches of snow. Temperature was about 15 degrees. Tried a little starter fluid and flooded the old girl out. Waited until Sunday and temperature was at 30 degrees outside. She started before I could release the button. Full to partial choke...

    Thanks to Bruce of Va.

    I meant Bruce instead of Bill. What part of Va are you from? I'm in Louisa Va.

    Thanks to Bruce of Va.

    After sitting for 6 months I couldn't get the 9N to start due to zero spark at plugs, so decided to change the points and condenser since it had been a few years since I had done it. Afterwards, still had no spark at plugs. Scanned the board as I usually do when things on the N don't go as...
