    distributor clip

    here seems to be some confusion here unless you can point out where exactly I said they screwed up. You may want to reread the posts. What I mentioned was the fact that Henry specd. the pallets of ordered parts to fit his cars and he would cut them to use as free floorboards. Didn't even...

    distributor clip

    Please do elaborate JMOR. I haven't yet gotten an answer that holds much water and I am curious. It's been years since I've been inside a points dist. but I don't remember seeing a clip inside until my first look inside a Ford tractor.

    Well, at least Henry used a metal clip and not something he whittled out of a made to order specd. pallet.

    distributor clip

    I've been rolling this around in my empty hear for a couple days and can't imagine what the clip that goes under the rotor and on the dist. shaft actually does. If it is to set the rotor height, wouldn't the dust cap serve that purpose? In order of assembly isn't it clip then dust cap then...

    3 point lever

    Ok I just looked it up. Don't sound like a lot of fun but maybe doable at home. Just when I was getting caught up on to do's another one comes along. Thank you for your reply. I was beginning to wonder if anybody was going to.

    3 point lever

    I forgot to add that it is a 52 8n. Do you know if it is something a person can do at home or does it go to the shop?

    3 point lever

    Any ideas on why my raise/lower lever jumps back up almost 1/4 from all the way down? My throttle plate is worn out and it takes one hand to hold it and one hand to keep the 3 point down and my other arm is too short to reach the steering wheel.

    Where's it from

    That is for digging corn kernel skins from behind your front teeth after eating corn on the cob. Most likely fell out of your toolbox.

    Horsepower

    Compare the weight of the rotating mass of your 8n and your lawnmower. You'll find your answer there.

    Diode in alternator wire question

    Maybe a stupid question, but I haven't seen a pic close enough to show or seen a written answer. When installing a diode in the alt. wire do you put a bend in the wire and solder the diode to short across the bend or do you clip the wire into and solder the diode to both newly exposed ends? In...

    Radiator Positioning?

    I'd love to see an estimated thickness of the bottom pads. My radiator sat too low for the winged cap before I rebuilt the engine and I'm ready to put radiator back in. I was thinking of cutting a square piece out of and old worn motorcycle tire figuring it to be right around 1/4" thick...
