    MF 230 Diesel lift arm spline - 1977

    Can anyone tell me if the 3 point lift arms on a 1977 MF 230 Diesel can be removed and rotated to a different position so the lift height can be changed?

    8n ignition

    best price I found was right here on YT. I was grinning from ear to ear yesterday after the tractor started. Smooth as silk and lots of power. Good product.

    8n ignition

    Front distributor 8N was running bad, fiber part that rubs on cam to open points was shot after a few months. Yes I put grease on it, I assume it was a poor quality part. Installed Pertronix electronic ignition in about an hour and was stunned by the engine performance. I will keep the...

    engine miss

    My 1949 front dist. 8N has a miss at high RPM when under load. I can fiddle with the choke and make it disappear which makes me think it's not an ignition problem. Otherwise it runs like a sewing machine. I have changed points, plugs, etc. and installed new coil. I haven't rebuilt the carb...

    hydraulic lift link shaft

    I see from my manual that it is purdy far up the axle housing. Dudn't look too hard to remove the bugle and fix it right. I think I'll be able to eyeball the diffy while the bugle is off.

    hydraulic lift link shaft

    The left hydraulic lift link pivot shaft is loose on my 8N. My parts diagram shows this shaft attached to the inside of the axle housing with a castle nut and cotter pin. Can this nut be reached from the access hole in the side of the hydraulic housing after the PTO lever and cover are removed?

    Bob, thanks for the info. Do you have to run a wire from the #2 connection to the Batt. terminal on the alternator? I saw a drawing of this for a Jeep one-wire alternator.

    Dell, yer right, I should have switched the meter to AC. I didn't realize what I was seeing until this morning. I borrowed an old Simpson analog meter from an electrician today. I'll check it this weekend with the Simpson and my digital meter. What do you think about a manual exitation...
