    JD 50 with 45 loader value

    It's located in Mt. Morris Il. My thoughts were starting around the 4000-4500 mark. Less than that and I'm selling the new tires and parts and practically giving the tractor/loader away. I have a video of it running but it's too large to upload here

    JD 50 with 45 loader value

    My father passed away in august and I am tasked with selling his possessions. Looking for input on establishing an asking price for his 1953' 50 with a JD 45 loader. The tractor has fresh paint and decals. It runs like a top and pops right off. I had to rebuild the carb and pull the gas tank and...

    John Deere 50 wiring diagram

    James, I just figured out from other sites your diagram is for a 3 terminal regulator, Armature, Field, and Battery. My tractor has a 4 terminal regulator. Armature, Field, Battery and Load. The lights and ignition are meant to wire to the Load terminal instead of daisy chaining off of...

    John Deere 50 wiring diagram

    That diagram is close but a little different. I have two leads coming back from the voltage regulator. One is the battery feed back to the ammeter, the other goes to the light/ignition switch. I found, through googling, a diagram of the back side of the instrument panel and it shows the two...

    John Deere 50 wiring diagram

    Does anybody have a wiring diagram they could share? I've got ignition and charging problems and the previous owner has hay baled the wiring. Thanks.

    1953 50 carb rebuild

    It was as I suspected. It was s fuel starvation issue to the carb. I dropped the glass bowl assembly from underneath the tank and the inlet to the it from the tank was almost completely blocked. It's a miracle it ran at all. That explains why it ran perfectly for a minute or two upon driving...

    1953 50 carb rebuild

    Ok, took it apart again and found one passage way blocked. Tractor now runs fine without choke on but starts to surge after driving for a couple of minutes. Like it's governor hunting then it usually dies. Upon re-starting I need full choke for the first 10 seconds or so then it's back to...

    1953 50 carb rebuild

    I just rebuilt the carb on my dads 50. It had sat for about 5 years having never been ran with the old fuel left in it. It's pops right off and idles fine but won't run unless fully choked. If I even crack the choke open just a hair it dies. I don't believe I have an air leak around the gaskets...
