Need seal kit for Wagner W3 Controls.
Thanks "wore out" for responding. After I reconnected the hub and started the engine, the engine was laboring. The two controls were centered by spring loading like one would expect. The previous owner had disconnected the hub and used a winch to hold up the bucket. When I moved the bucket...- HowardH

Need seal kit for Wagner W3 Controls.
I purchased a 1947 8n Ford tractor with a Wagner W3 Loader. The previous owner said that there was a problem with the controls and disconnected the hub driving the pump. I reconnected the W3 hydraulic pump back up. When I fired the motor, the RPMs were pretty low. When I pushed one of the W3...- HowardH

Spark Problem with 1947 Ford 8N
Your right. I meant to say "don't just crimp crimp connectors, solder them". The wire I made in the picture uses crimp connectors, but the connector and the wire are tinned then soldered and shrink-wrapped.- HowardH

Spark Problem with 1947 Ford 8N
You bet. I didn't want to fire the engine without key control. The guy that sold it to me had disconnected the W3's pump and told me some gibberish about the hydraulic controls. I used to own a badass Pettibone B400 backhoe I had rebuilt, so I know a little about hydraulic controls. So if...- HowardH

Spark Problem with 1947 Ford 8N
Never mind, I figured it out myself. I dug out my wiring diagram and parts list and discovered the "ballast resistor". Various websites all agreed that it's resistance should be "0.6" ohms. After disconnecting the battery, I measured the resistance from the battery cable to the coil post...- HowardH

Spark Problem with 1947 Ford 8N
Hello fellow old tractor owners, I bought a 1947 8n (the year I was born) from a guy with a w3 loader which was disconnected. Last year I used the 8N for some grading work and shut it down for the winter. When I tried to start it this spring, it would not start. I pulled a plug and checked the...- HowardH
