    8n tune up dilemma

    Thanks for the reply, Nicely done. I can fashion something like that, but will need to insulate it from the plate. The reason I ask is it looks like there is nothing to isolate the copper strip and the condenser wire from the body of the distributor plate. Thanks again, Dave

    8n tune up dilemma

    Hello, While giving the 8n a tune up, the copper strap in the distributor finally broke off. Question is, can that be repaired/replaced, or is there an insulator that isolates it from the condenser? Thanks, Dave

    cat 416 backhoe

    Hello, I would like to get the directionals and the hazard lights working. Could someone tell me where the heck the solenoid is? I do not see anything where the fuses are and nothing in the owners manual. Thanks, Dave

    sos transmission

    Hi, I have a '59 871 with a sos transmission. Do I have to depress the inching pedal to shift the tractor into gear?

    SOS will not shift

    Let me clarify: I removed the entire shifter assembly from the dash, but did not actually disconnect the cable. I removed the cable sleeve to check for rust and found none. I was able to get the shifter to move freely, and it seems that what ever is preventing the cable from moving freely is...

    SOS will not shift

    Picked up a no running 800 series with a sos transmission. Tractor is running and the hydraulics work, pto spins and the 3 point works as well. Checked the trans oil level and that is ok although the oil needs to be changed (it's milky). The shifter will not budge. Removed the shifter from the...
