    H Electrical Problem

    I took my H to a shop nearby to have the oil pump replaced. While it was there, the shop owner noticed I had a 12V alternator conversion, and said that with an alternator, you need to use a voltmeter rather than an ammeter, and so he put a new voltmeter in. He ran a wire from the voltmeter to...

    Oliver Certified Horsepower

    When did Oliver begin adding the "Certified" sticker with certified HP and Dyno operator's signature to the left rear hoods? Another post quoted an end date through company memo sometime in 1971 (May I think, but now I can't find the post). But when did it begin? Certainly it seems to have...

    Wire rebar in concrete forms or not?

    Someone I consider knowledgeable on the subject of building concrete walls told me something I?d never heard before. We were talking about placing rebar in concrete forms. He said that where horizontal lengths of rebar overlap, it?s better if they aren?t wired together. He claimed that wiring...

    mounting a winch on my equipment trailer

    Iwould like to know how others have mounted winches on their equipment trailers. Trailer I have is a 16 foot tilt with two 5200 axles. I was thinking about putting a piece of 5/16 4 inch flat bar between lower end of the trailer and the bar above the bed. Would weld a receiver hitch to this...

    generator charging question

    Finally got the 6 volt generating system to charge on my A. Only thing I see now is it has to have more than half throttle to get enough rpms to charge. Is there any way to get it to charge at least a little at lower RPMS? The 12 volt system on my 300U doesn't need as many rpms to at least...

    DISCUSSION 2 cyliner start repair

    I am looking to have a starter off a 520 repaired. Are there many places that rebuild starts? and I don't mean just installing new brushes and calling it rebuilt. Is this skill dying with the guys that rebuilt these in the day? What are your thought and experience with having them rebuilt?

    More Finland pics

    1953 Buick Roadmaster and a real beauty! Super was similar, cheaper and had but three portholes. (I don't see anything unusual about that Roadmaster)

    What newer No-till corn / bean planters smaller guys run?

    John Deere 1750 conservation planter. I bought mine new in 2006 and have no-tilled corn and beans each year. Works great.

    1850 battery question

    That is impressive. My biggest tractor with a 411 cu in diesel came with a 960CCA batt.

    1850 battery question

    "The alternator is showing almost 13 volts charging." That's about one volt too low. Where to find batteries? Agco dealer should have a parts list on computer. John Deere will probably have info and batteries. If that's not an option, I would get the biggest batteries designed for farm use that...

    1850 battery question

    As I recall, those tractors were 12v from the get go but used two 6 volt batteries. Anyway, do you have a voltmeter? Is the new batterry you bought getting recharged properly after starting? It sounds like maybe it's not. If it can start the tractor once, twice, three times and then doesn't have...

    worst tractor youve ever owned

    Those unfortunate few farmers who owned the Ford 6000 Commander probably had one of the worst tractors ever only because of the aptly named SOS transmission that was simply not ready to be marketed in a tractor of that size and power.

    CIH Maxxum

    thanks. That would be a forerunner to the one I have in mind. Specifically, I"m looking at the Maxxum 125. A 6 cyl turbocharged engine similar to yours but having 411 cu in of disp.
