    Gene, Thank you for the information. I just took the generator and cut out to Acme Electric here in Seattle Washington. Their shop has been rebuilding starters and generators for things I've worked on for many years. Thanks again, Chris

    overrunning clutch and pto shaft for my LX4 rotary mower

    I want to put an overriding clutch on the output shaft of my 8N. The implement shaft that came with the 4 foot John Deere mower would have to be shortened as the ORC extends the output shaft on my 8N. Modifying the implement shaft that came with the mower ( shortening the shaft) would cause a...

    overrunning clutch and pto shaft for my LX4 rotary mower

    Thank you for the information. I will look at the PTO shaft carefully and will return it if looks like an accident waiting to happen. I mow in several places. One area is 2.5 acres and there are many fences,buildings, and trees which make it difficult at time to mow without some type of ORC. The...

    Dell, You have a very interesting job and a great place to live. A little background to the 8N I just bought. I"ve been interested in this particular 8N for years. I knew the history of the tractor from the early 1950"s. Didn"t get interested in the tractor until my wife and I have been...

    solid state ignition unit for 6v ford 8N

    Dell, Your ideas about the EI needing full 6 volts is probably the key here. I noticed that all of my other tractors worked much better when I changed them to 12 volts. I added EI to all the units later after they had already been changed to 12 volts. It seems that my 8N starts much better on...

    solid state ignition unit for 6v ford 8N

    Ken, Thank ye for the reply. Tractors I have in my collection of tractors are stored on an island in the San Juan Islands. They are in garages but I have found that point systems seem to oxidize when the tractors sit idle for long periods of time. The sea is close and it is a very huumid...
