    Distillate Valve Guides

    Are distillate valve guides different than the gas guides? Where can I source new ones? I only what looks to be gas head guides on-line.

    Oil on my Plugs, but WHERE is it From?

    I'll get back before Wed (I hope) with a report on compression and leakdown...in the meantime: Are guides for the distillate valves the same as for the gas? I assume the valves are the same stem thickness? The Steiner site (for example) only lists valves, guides, etc for tractors with...

    Oil on my Plugs, but WHERE is it From?

    On my '46 H I frequently (frequently enough to be annoying, but not every time I run the tractor) have to pull the same two spark plugs due to oil fouling. I get a nice gunky build-up on the ends of the plugs, effectively filling the gap. The odd thing is, I don't have the common trail of blue...

    Unusual symptoms, needle valve restriction?

    I also encountered an additional problem just a month ago when the tractor started acting up again and SOLVED it. There was a round, plasticky-ish item in the bottom of the tank that I was able to see with a mirror and a strong flashlight. I was able to fish it out with a yardstick and a long...

    Woods Deck for A Questions:

    I am in the market for a Farmall A with a Woods cutting deck...but I had some questions (I have no experience with A's or Woods decks): Does a Woods deck cut like a finish mower or more like a bush hog? I want to use it to cut our 2-acre yard. (I already have a bush hog for my H.) I...

    Did you mistype the email address by chance? My email to this person was returned "undeliverable". Is there a website?

    Unusual symptoms, needle valve restriction?

    PROBLEM SOLVED: It turns out that the graphite packing that surrounds the load screw (#24703DA...number 19 in the Case/IH diagram, only $4) was deteriorating and pieces of it had broken off and was plugging the main jet. Why it was worse when turning, I believe, was because it put the tractor...

    Unusual symptoms, needle valve restriction?

    Back when I had the no-start issue a few years ago, the plugs were black and oily. (It will need new sleeves and/or valve guides at some point.) I pull wires to check for non-firing plugs once a week and pull plugs when they start to foul. I checked the plugs when I had the issue this time...

    H Farmall I bought at an auction

    I agree...don't sweat the 12/6 volt thing, unless maybe you start and run the tractor in the middle of winter, but even then it should be fine 6 or 12. It'll run a long time on just the battery too because the ignition is the only thing that draws power. It's getting it running that's the...

    Unusual symptoms, needle valve restriction?

    Farmall H did this the other day: I was discing a new hayfield to prep it for planting. We used the tractor for several hours without a hiccup...and then suddenly it would sputter while pulling the disc when making right-hand turns but idled just fine. It also would run at full throttle just...

    '46 H No-Start...down the path we go...

    I've been going through old posts and realized I never closed the loop on this one. It turned out that the magneto was bad, very weak spark. I tried to rebuild it myself and had no luck so I sprung for a new one. Money well spent: I've since plowed a nice 4-acre hay field and do all my...

    M-TA vs. Oliver 88...shocked...

    Long term update: The tractor pull in question was just the local friendly pull...no weight classes or anything fancy. Just run-what-ya-brung.
