    First Cub tractor.

    I just hauled in my first cub tractor. Has a few issues I'm working through. One of those that I want to correct is a fuel leak at the carburetor from a brass bolt. No idea what this is for and wanted to inquire purpose before I removed. Looks like a felt washer behind the head of the bolt. Did...

    Front seal leaking -- Super A

    Thanks for information. Kinda thought the front end would need to come out. The search will continue.

    Front seal leaking -- Super A

    I have an opportunity to pick up a Super A. Two items that I saw when view the machine are: 1--front seal (not sure what seal) is leaking quite a bit. Drips down from where I believe hand crank opening is. How difficult is it to replace that seal? Would I need to remove the front axle? 2--the...

    PTO adapter

    Pulled the original pto shaft from the tractor. There is a difference in appearance between the two. The shaft on the bottom is the original, on the top is the shaft with 1-3/8 splines. Measured (at the widest point shown) and there is a small difference; the original shaft is .0002 smaller. I...

    What model is this?

    Not very familiar with these machines and hoping someone can tell me what model this farmall is. Has not run in quite a while and appears to need front tires. Thinking(!) about picking this up as a project.

    PTO adapter

    Was able to solve the issue. Purchased a PTO shaft that is 1-3/8. The seal on the shaft is bad so going to replace the seal and bearing on the 1-3/8 shaft.

    PTO adapter

    Thank you for the comment but I believe you misunderstood. I have a 1-1/8 to 1-3/8 adapter, not an overrunning clutch. A roll pin at 5/16ths is loose. I can push the roll pin through the hole in the adapter and pto shaft with my fingers. A roll pin at 3/8ths is way too large. Cannot find a...

    PTO adapter

    Have a ford 55 ford 860. Purchased a PTO adapter to convert to 1-3/8. Found that a 5/16th roll pin is too small but a 3/8 is too large? What do most people use to pin the adapter to the PTO shaft? Would a 5/16th bolt/nut/washer work for this? Seems just a little sketchy to go that route.

    801 Power Master diesel or 861 Gas?

    The routing of the fuel line is -- creative -- but it does run well. Started this morning (29 degrees) on one crank. Hydraulics are a little slow and fluid looks a little milky but would expect that as is has been sitting out for some time. With the exception of the leaking PTO shaft and carb...

    801 Power Master diesel or 861 Gas?

    I was mistaken. 860 is correct.

    801 Power Master diesel or 861 Gas?

    Thanks. This is good information. I will need to take this machine out on the road with the farthest field about 6 miles away. Three of those miles are two lane highway, remainder are tertiary tar and chip roads. Great information. I may go this route.

    801 Power Master diesel or 861 Gas?

    Have an opportunity to purchase either an 801 series with diesel engine or a 861 with a gas engine. Both are in good condition however the 861 will need pto seal and bearing replaced (leaks a lot). The 861 had the engine rebuilt about 400 hours ago. Diesel is about 1k more expensive. Hour meter...

    Crank no start 661

    As an update. I did pull the plug at the bottom of the carb. Fuel flowed freely from hole and did fill a 12-ounce soda can but believe it took more than 2 minutes. I do plan to replace the current coil with a coil (both are 12v) I have that does require an external resistor--just easier than...

    Crank no start 661

    The spark is blue and does jump the gap Another question. This tractor was recently converted to 12v. Looking at the wiring, I see the person who did the conversion kept the external resistor and used an internal resistor coil. Was under the impression with the use of an internal resistor coil...
