    Ford 541 Offset Starting Woes

    Sounds to me like you are getting some bad condensers. also check the small wires on the coil to make sure the neg side is going to the distributor.

    Source for new 861 two stage clutch

    since the engine is rebuilt you will be adding extra hp and torque that the clutch hasn't seen in awhile. I would put it in now instead of paying for a split on top of a new clutch later.

    You can turn the bottom of the seat around by taking out the rollpins that go through the slots. there is circlips in the ends that hold the bushings in that has to come out too. just slide the rods out of the flat pieces and turn the base and reassemble. You will be able to move it back the...

    4 cyl 4000 - Starter - Does it need a spacer

    Maybe the bolts that hold the whole starter together are too long and hitting the flywheel.

    Got started on the Rest-O-Ride seats finally

    I needed more room from the seat to the steering wheel. I had seen where there was plates welded on the front edge. I found that if I knocked the roll pins out of the slots that I could just turn the base around and gain about 4 inches. It still clears everything.

    Got a few select-o-speed questions

    1 Is the screen down on the drain the oil pickup? reason for asking is after an hour or so of running the oil pressure light comes on but doesn't quit. Thinking it is sludged up in the bottom and it gets stirred and partially clogs the screen. 2 when I put it in park, it goes past the safety...

    Get 'em while you can, I suppose

    I would get that rear section too. Some of the early 01 models as well as all the 00 models have the left brake crossover shaft that runs through the transmission right behind the clutch shaft. The sos needs the newer one that the brakeshaft crosses under the rear housing. Do these still have...

    Ford 801 (871?) What's it worth?

    Just out of cuiosity, why do some diesels have the square box air cleaner and some have the whole filter up on the side of the hood?

    Ford 2000 tractor Radiator question

    You may be able to squeeze a little more clearance by loosening the two bolts at the bottom of the dog leg and have someone lift the hood straight up while tightening the bolts back up.

    # point stabilizer bar question

    I have a '64 4000. I kept the stabilizer bars that came on another similar tractor. The lower brackets that bolt under the fender mount are exactly like the ones on the other tractor. they both had 4 holes for the short pin and are set to align with the lower pivot that the lower link mounts on...
