    Ford 9N distributor problem

    I am trying to get my 9N running. I have been working on it intermittently for a while. I saw a tutorial that worked on the distributor posted by the Gingell's in Michigan (farm tractor). At the start she discussed how to trouble shoot with a light probe on the top of the front mounted coil...

    Hydraulic control on 2n

    Mr Geiger, very little of your message ended up as posted my question on Yester Tract site, but I assume that you were saying something about magnetos on 2n vs. generators on 9n. Thanks for your partial response. You can decide if you want to repost.

    Hydraulic control on 2n

    electronic ignition conversion

    Thank you for your responses. I guess I can try it. I get tired of cleaning points to get it started, so despite suggestions that good maintenance of points & condenser would be as good as electronic here I go. Thanks again.

    electronic ignition conversion

    I have a 1952 Super M. I use it around my acreage, but I have continuous starting problems because I don't use alot. I would like to get rid of points and condenser. Do the electronic conversion kits improve starting? Can an idiot (not exceptionally mechanical, but not afraid--I) install it...
