    Rust inside of gas cap - Part 2

    Thanks to all that responded to my post yesterday about rust quickly forming inside my new gas cap on my 4020 diesel. Some respondants noted that the problem was water in the fuel tank and that I should drain it. Well, yes, I probably do have some water in the bottom of the tank, but I...

    What has happened to Craftsman power tools?

    10 years ago when I bought this 100 year old house the very first project I bought an 18 volt craftsman drill. It lasted 5 years and I was more than happy with it so I bought another one just like it. Two weeks ago the second one slid off another barn roof and no amount of duct tape was going to...

    Sharpening drill bits

    I've seen numerous discussions on here over the years about sharpening drill bits and many of those discussions mention the Drill Dr. Usually in those discussions when the DD is mentioned there are also mentions of the more "quality" brand sharpeners like Darex, etc. Well, I learned something...

    Stumped by 8N

    I've been wondering about that possibility. I drained and refilled the tank in the spring, and put fuel stabilizer in it when I did so. So I'm not sure if it's old enough to be a problem, but maybe it would be smart to drain it again and put in fresh gas?

    I should of course have mentioned that my tractor is converted to 12 volt.

    Stumped by 8N

    I did in fact check the gas by loosening the bolt in the bottom of the carb, and the spark using a spark plug. Spark is blue-white.

    Stumped by 8N

    I have a 1952 8N that was working, quit on me one day, and I have not been able to get it started again. I have checked and found that all the plugs have spark (and they"re new). I just put in a new carburetor, there is definitely fuel reaching it and so far as I can tell everything is working...

    Cleaning air filter

    I"ve got the air filter off my "52 8N and think I should replace the metal mesh filter material and clean inside the canister. There are two coils of mesh and the bottom one was easy enough to remove, but getting hold of the upper one from the bottom of the filter canister is tough. I saw one...

    Thanks Bob. This tractor is converted to 12-volt with an alternator. And apparently I've been grounding the spark plug correctly then.
