    Rod is Knocking in my Ford. Do I need a full rebuild??

    If it has EI take it out and put points in it. I understand that will make it run better. -horsepoor

    Changing to Electronic Ignition

    Points AIN'T 3 bucks in this century!!!!! Try 10 to 20, and most now come from The Land of the Never Right. I have a set of points in my IH 240 running a 12V alternator. Put them in 20 years ago when my Dad owned it. And, it is easier to access. Front mount with a Wagner loader on it is a...

    Update - Farmall 140 Won't Start Discoveries Today.

    Sounds like you are on the right track cleaning the carb. I have had to clean the carb on my F240 twice in the last 6 years, always after sitting in the shed for a few months.

    Changing to Electronic Ignition

    Another thing to consider, while contemplating on trying Electronic Ignition or keeping points, our Amish farrier was here shoeing the horses shook his head and said, "With a good pair of Belgians, you don't need that tractor at all". Kind of puts it all in perspective, doesn't it.

    Changing to Electronic Ignition

    One thing I will add, even though I have an EI in my tractor, I kept the old points set up and mounting plate. Changing BACK to points, if needed, is about as quick as changing points. About 15 min. In my case I did it for convenience around June of 2010. So far, no problems. If you do the...

    Changing to Electronic Ignition

    Yes, use the square can 12V coil. The EI will replace the points plate under the snap ring inside the distributor. You will have to drill a hole in the side of the distributor to run the wire thru. I put silicone around the wire. I quickly tired of maintaining points with a Wagner loader on...

    front loader for 1041 9n

    Yes, Several loaders were made. Some manufacturers had several models. The way I even got into the N tractors, was the need for a loader. We found a 1949 8n with a Wagner loader and Dearborn blade in rough but running, actually fairly original, condition for less than $3000. I was going to...
