    8N cam thrust washer/spring

    I have no way of knowing where this engine originated, I'm sure it's not original, that one went back to the rebuilder around 1978 or so. There have been 1 or 2 since. There is very little end play in the cam so I'll leave it out. Thanks for the reply!

    8N cam thrust washer/spring

    So the thrust washer is considered optional? I'm in the middle of a teardown / check over on a several times short blocked 2N and found everything to be in decent condition. Oil gap on bearings is in spec, no wear on liners, mouse house removed from intake manifold etc. I took the timing...

    R Geiger, :? I waited to respond because at first I was a little insulted by your response. When I thought about it we do not know each other and I have not gone deep into detail so I'll start with some background and get to the details. I've been a professional mechanic / technician for...

    Front distributor advance weights

    JMOR, The instructions I read for tuning the carb are pretty straight forward. Basically with it running turn the idle mixture screw in until the engine stumbles then back it out a half turn then set idle speed to 400 rpm. Next bring it to full throttle and do the same thing with the Hi...

    Front distributor advance weights

    Thanks Greg. They are free, not binding up but if you hold the shaft horizontally (as it would be in the tractor) the bottom weight falls away from the shaft about a 1/16th, maybe a bit more. I know they are fussy about correct timing to start easily and figured if the springs are weak the...

    Front distributor advance weights

    Hello all, I have a 9N that has been in my family for close to 60 years, my uncle is the second owner, the first was the owner of what was our local Ford Tractor dealership. It has always run strong and been as reliable as any of the old iron. The past few years it has not been used much, he...
