    distributor

    That sounds like a good thing to check and would be the easy way out. As far as the distributor not being all the way down,I had not touched it yet and it was tight with the two side bolts. Thank you.

    distributor

    My Ford 600 series quit running and in checking the points I found that a point had fallen off of not an old set. This was remedied with a new set and my problem was over,so I thought.When it didn't start I discovered that the distributor shaft that the rotor sits on didn't turn a few times when...

    Emblem housing

    I just bought an emblem,and housing for a Ford 600. It hasn't been installed yet because of painting. The wider part of the housing (that is the side next to the hood ) is about 1 1/2 inches wider than my old one. (that is top to bottem measurement) When I do install it I am wondering if the...

    Paint

    I bought tisco tp 310 Ford red for my 600 series,and am dissapointed.To me it is orange. I was hoping for more of a redish,orange. Was orange the right color? I don't remember it being this color. The color that I am removing is blue like so many have been painted to make them look like a later...

    Term

    It is on the left side along with the pto lever.behind the foot. It is definitly for running my tiller as I have done it for years although that has come to an end,the tiller will be run by unother tractor. The 600 will no longer be a working tractor,it will be for parades,and to keep nice...

    Term

    My deep reduction gear on my 600 series for running things like a tiller has been called a Sherman gear by some,and that to my understanding is for a higher speed. At the same time,I have heard it called a Howard gear which I also believe should be proper. If Howard is correct was it made by the...

    paint

    On my 600 restoration I will of course do the correct red,and grey.It is now grey,and blue,yep so many have done this to keep up with the newer models ,but in restoration the original color just really makes an eye catcher. The question is should the generator,and starter be black to bring it...
