    Ford 8n Hydraulics

    LOL I was responding to Hokie when you posted this. I will try this when the storms around here ease off a bit. Out of curiosity, if the piston is leaky, how long would one expect it to hold up a blade?

    Ford 8n Hydraulics

    Thanks for that. I am having a hard time sourcing this. I am looking for a male unf to female npt correct? Does it matter if it is flared on the unf side? Rather than leaks I an actually worried more about the pump itself. The odd thing is, when I get it raise the lift with a blade on it, and I...

    Would this gauge work? Just screw it into the port at the bottom of the pan, and see what it reads...

    Never mind on the port, I found it.

    Ford 8n Hydraulics

    I honestly have no idea where that port is located, nor do I have a gauge. Can you give me more info, perhaps a picture of the port, and what kind of gauge I would need to buy?

    Ford 8n Hydraulics

    On the dipstick it is at the top of the full mark. I would assume the dipstick is correct, unless it has been swapped out for some reason before I got it. Looking at the video again it comes up to the bottom of the inspection doors bolts. I would think you wouldn't want it much higher than that...

    Ford 8n Hydraulics

    Oh, and yes I did have the PTO engaged and lift controls were at the top. It was running a bit below half throttle at this time. Also, I noticed there was no gasket on the inspection door. I am pretty sure I bought some to go there a while back when I was going to investigate this (and just...

    Ford 8n Hydraulics

    Just wanted to get someone with more knowledge's input before I spend money or tear anything apart for rebuild. My 8n SHOULD if in proper working condition be able to lift an implement even at low RPM right? As of right now it lifts, but only at high RPM, and after it gets warm it really gets...

    Stripped threads in idle jet

    Man, this actually helped me to get it climbing hills even with the cheap knock offs. Oddly enough my dad bought a carb for the tractor thinking it would be better a while back. Unfortunately he bought a tsx580, that the guy at the tractor shop recommended to him. When I read your post I cracked...

    Stripped threads in idle jet

    The one I am trying to repair looks almost exactly like this one, aside from the name on it. Mine has no identifying marks at all that I can find.

    Stripped threads in idle jet

    The carb itself is kind of black, looks like it used to have red paint on it. For sure it is the MS TSX line, not zenith. As for the hill thing. I fiddled with it for a long while, and it is certainly a fuel delivery issue ( on the cheap carbs, not the one I am trying to fix). I let it die on...

    Stripped threads in idle jet

    Oh, yea I suppose I could have been a little more specific. Its a 48 8n. I think it is the tsx 33 (it has no markings or tags). If it is a replica it is much closer to the original than the current batch of aluminum replicas.

    Stripped threads in idle jet

    Hello all, been a while since I have been around here. A while back I tried to strip my carb (I can't tell if it is an authentic MS, or a very old replica, but it ran ok... It is cast iron instead of aluminum) When I got into it it seems that almost all of the brass was near fused to the cast. I...

    8n axle interchange or other such problem

    Good deal, sounds like I pretty much have everything aside from the axle then. I was mainly concerned about that bearing. Are they a bear to swap from one axle to the next?

    8n axle interchange or other such problem

    That sounds about right. If I go with changing the axle, what all will I need? I already have inner and outer seals (because I didn't do my research to know I wouldn't need inners). I know there is a bearing that goes on the axle, will I be able to reuse the one I have if it is still in good...
