    TSC Tras/hyd fluid

    Thank you, Tim, for all the great information. I'm old and have read so much on this topic that it became confusing. In the past I had been using Ambra 134 in all three compartments with no issues. But was informed that it was discontinued. Just wanted to be sure to use a comparable oil to...

    Industrial Engine ID

    I have a 1955 Ford 640 that has a rebuilt industrial engine installed. I was wondering if anyone could help me find out what year the engine is, and if it's actually a 134 or 172.

    Ford 8N Generator, 6 Volt

    Ford 8N Generator, 6 Volt

    I've had experience rebuilding automotive alternators and generators when I was young. Now that I've found parts I may try it myself. I don't have a magnetic growler tester, but I'm hopeful I can test it out with a meter.

    It is growling and sometimes shows a grounding on the amp gauge. Seems to be quiet and smooth with the belt off.

    Ford 8N Generator, 6 Volt

    I live in Wisconsin. Shipping cost would be an issue. But thanks guys. There is a small rebuild kit out there. I may take it apart myself and see if I can save it. Again, thank you guys.
