    farmall m hydraulics

    I'm in the process of putting a new 2 spool valve for the loader on my M. The problem I'm having is I took the old valves and hoses off and I'm not sure how to run the new hoses. The tractor has a pump ahead of the distributor. Do I just run the hoses from the 2 fittings on that pump or do I...

    paint can primer

    I'm starting to repaint my M and put some red oxide primer on the gas tank that was stripped to bare metal. Will this last after I paint it? The primer was Majic brand in a spray can. I'm planning on putting Majic brand on with a spray gun.

    farmall m not ruuning well

    I have been having trouble with my m running poorly, so I put in new points, condenser, plugs and wires. It still seems to have a miss in it.
