    8N stalling on 15 degree hill

    I ordered a new switch from YT, got it today and installed it. The tractor started right up, was able to mow for about 3 hours and it ran fine. The tractor would be a permanent monument in the field if it were not for the people on this forum. Thanks again.

    8N stalling on 15 degree hill

    I just pulled a plug and have no spark that I can see. It is a front mount distributor.

    8N stalling on 15 degree hill

    No, the motor just died, it was running fine. I was in 2 rd gear about 3/4 throttle.

    8N stalling on 15 degree hill

    No I did not. When I get it running again I will check. Stupid question, if it does not have a spark what would cause it to die once the motor is warm and going uphill?

    8N stalling on 15 degree hill

    Today with the brush hog running the tractor stalled on a hill about 15 degrees. Three times it stalled in about the same area. Each time the tractor would not start till the motor cooled down. Each time I was able to make one pass up the hill and on the second pass, maybe 5 minutes later, it...

    Hydralics

    Thanks for your reply. Actually I rebuilt the pump and put in a new piston and cylinder last spring. I bought the tractor two years ago. The hydraulics were not working right so I rebuilt it. This problem started sometime in late summer and got worst over time.

    Hydralics

    On my 8N, when I have my brushhog on, when the lift control is in the full down position, the 3 point hitch will stay down. When I try to lift the front of the brushhog one or two inches off of the ground, sometimes after five minutes, sometimes twenty minutes of mowing, the time varies, the...

    8N starter 12 volt

    Thanks guys, really appreciate the help. I am not sure what the different parts are called but the gear(?) is split in two places. It is obvious that it is not a new or rebuilt starter. I can buy a new starter for $110.00 plus shipping and with my limited knowledge I think this is the best way...

    8N starter 12 volt

    I tried to start my 8N just to let it run for awhile. It did not start right away, the starter would crank the motor and then stop and freewheel.(?) Then as it was cranking I heard a clunk. Now it will only freewheel. I bought the tractor last spring and it was reconditioned and I have for the...

    Hydraulics on 8N

    JMOR You were right, the spring was broken in 4 places. I found a spring locally, got the pump in and it appears to work as it should. Thank you for you help.

    Hydraulics on 8N

    JMOR I adjusted the control valve by moving the quadrant support plate and was able to adjust it good enough to get my land mowed, but it started to lift on its own just as I was finishing. I will have more time on Wed. to drain fluid and adjust it properly. If that does not work I will pull...

    Hydraulics on 8N

    Is the outlet control valve the same as the exhaust control valve? I bought the rebuild kit HPOK1 and they do not come with any springs for either the intake or exhaust valves. I never took that assembly apart. I don't see those springs on YT's hydraulic parts list.

    Hydraulics on 8N

    I replaced the relief valve, I ground the scallop myself, I used the NAA type piston. The problem I am having now is the same problem I had before I rebuilt the hydraulics. The only difference is that the hydraulics is now not leaking down under the weight of the bush hog. Thanks for pointing...
