    B414 gas

    ----------------------------------------------------- Try the following number at your CIH dealer 3047701R91. Messicks still list it at about $20.00

    C with snow blade

    --------------------------------------------- In the equivalent latitude areas of Ontario the snowblower is the only way to go. If you get more than 6 inches on a long 1/2 mile laneway you are dreaming if you think that a push blade can keep the road open without running up and down constantly...

    C-153 valve clearance

    ------------------------------------------ I might add too that older C123 engines whose pistons were replaced with Fire Crater pistons had the exhaust valve clearance changed from .014 inches with cast iron pistons to .020 inches with the Fire Craters. This would primarily affect Farmall Super...

    IH model 1300 balanced head Mower

    ------------------------------------------------ My CIH 1300 has two rollers for the belt one on top and one below.

    b416

    ------------------------------------------------------------------ The only surviving B614 in Canada that I know of is the one the Richards family have in their collection north of Toronto. It was originally owned by IH of Canada in Hamilton and was never retailed. It was used at the Hamilton...

    Traction Control ? First Farmall with it? And Improvements?

    ------------------------------------------------- In addition to the 404 and 504, the 606 also had the upper link draft control in late 1961.

    Fast Hitch Sickle Bar Mower Model C 21?

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The big difference is the location of the PTO shaft. On the 21 and 24 series mowers the PTO was directly above the pitman rod pivot and allowed for the high Farmall mounted PTOs. The 28 series had the PTO mounted down low...

    IH 2504 connecting rod bearings

    --------------------------------------------------------- Have you rebuilt the oil pump. All oil pumps should have the bottom plate replaced or resurfaced, and if the mating gears have bottom side wear on them they should be replaced also. The C113 , C123, C135, C146, C153 series of engines all...

    International 354

    ----------------------------------------------------------------- Use SAE 90 weight oil in the transmission and final drive housings. Use Case IH HYTRAN for the hydraulic system located on top of the transmission.

    IH 354 coolant in crankcase

    ------------------------------------------------------------- Another thing about these tractors and especially the BC144 is that they like CIH Low Ash engine oil. They don't like 10W-30, 15W-40 or any other multi viscosity oils. I have seen off colored oil occurring on these tractors from use...

    IH 354 coolant in crankcase

    -------------------------------------------------------------------- First of all, does the tractor have antifreeze in it? If it does, it is easy. Run the tractor and after running it for some time shut it off and crack the oil pan drain plug. With the plug cracked do you get any antifreeze...

    354 opinions

    ------------------------------------------------------------------ Parts are the same as the B414, 424,444, 364, 384. Many thousands of them built and many of them still in use in North America. Mahindra also built the B414 and it's derivatives and these derivatives are still in production. The...

    Would 340u Rims Fit a 300u

    ---------------------------------------------------------------- Just buy new rims. Those 12 x 28 rims with 6 lugs are some of the cheapest rims available. I bought 2 of them about 5 years ago for my B414 and they were even painted the right color. I think I paid a little over $200 each for...

    Gas-powered International B275 at auction - rough value?

    ------------------------------------------------------------------ The B275 gas is a rare bird and is very collectible. They were only sold in 1961 and after. The BC144 is the same engine as used in the B414 gas, 434 gas, 276 gas, 354 gas, and 444 (British) gas. I have a B414 gas and they have...

    IH B414 repair/restore issue

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------- One other thing is that IH made a major change to the transmission and hydraulic systems when they changed from the 5 5/8 inch brakes to the 6 1/2 brakes in early 1964. Check through the parts manual on Messicks.com for both...
