    Hydraulic pump rebuild?

    OK, I get what your saying about the lift. And it looked smooth as it went up. I wouldnt have noticed any pulsing if I wasnt standing on the lift arms. But I really expected to see more oil moving around inside the right inspection cover. ?? How does the lift cover components get lubricated...

    Hydraulic pump rebuild?

    Hello all, Working on my new to me 52 8n. When I bought the tractor the hydraulics were seized up. The lift Handle was stuck and wouldnt move, the lift arms were also stuck on the bushings and wouldnt go up or down. The previous owner just used it to tow trailers around for years apparently. I...

    Gear oil leak

    By the way Mr Yokel :), What implement is that bracket for that is bolted along side and under your tractor. I just bought a tractor with the same bracket on it. Not the dog bone looking pc, or the part that goes under the tractor. But my 8N had the step plates removed to add the mounting...

    coil resistance

    Thank you all for your feedback, and confirming what I thought was the way to go. I used the 1.5 ohm resistor that I had. We used to call them sand resistors. ??She starts and runs good.

    coil resistance

    Hello all, its been a while....cuz my tractor was running good. Sorry to drag up this topic again but searching through all of the posts is very time consuming. With all of the knowledge here I know I can get a quick correct answer. The motor blew in my 9N a few weeks ago so I took the...

    Cold Blooded 9N

    Hi Bruce ( and all ) So, to clarify the start of my last post. I bought the tractor as a basket case 5 years ago. I got a box full of parts and a partial tractor with a tranny full to the top with Ice. That is when I did all the work, went through everything and replaced what looked like it...

    Cold Blooded 9N

    Hello All, I have a 1941 9n. Bought the tractor about 5 years ago and did a lot of work to it including engine work ( piston/ rings/ crank , bearings etc ). Also replaced anything that looked old or worn, like Carb, distributer, 12V alternator etc ( carb and dist were new China knockoffs )...

    41 9N Oil fouled plugs , skipping etc - UPDATE

    Well, I am not sure how they got this way, or how long they had been in there, or even if they were the right ones or not. But the diameter of the valves seals on the guide were very much smaller than the diameter of the guide. They were still somewhat pliable and soft so they were either the...

    41 9N Oil fouled plugs , skipping etc - UPDATE

    So, I reluctantly took the motor apart, again. When I took the intake off I found Oil all inside both intake ports. I removed the Intake valve assemblies and found very bad valve seals and very worn valve guides. Fearing a broken oil ring I decided to replace all of the rings too. When I...

    41 9N oil in the carb

    Been using my 9N a little and now I have oil in the throat of the carb. Here's a recap of what I have - Skippin on #2 , found oil fouled plug. Did a compression test and found 89 - 95 across the 4 cylinders dry, and 95 - 102 wet. I left the air cleaner tube off and used it or an hour or so off...

    41 9n with oil fouled plug - original

    From reading other threads, it seems these compression numbers are low.?? So, I either try a hotter plug and one of those anti foul adapters and let it burn oil and replace plugs as needed, or plan to rebuild the top half of the motor by replacing pistons, sleeves, valve train etc.?? Are these...

    41 9n with oil fouled plug - original

    I saw that post but I thought I read on this site that the old valve guides don't have seals. Something about rotating valves vs. no rotating valves?? If I pull the side cover can I tell which valve guides I have and if they have seals?

    41 9n with oil fouled plug - original

    I gapped a plug at as close to 1/4" as I could get. Had bright blue white spark jump the gap. Spark is good. Its burning oil. I put in a new plug, ran it for a while, pulled the plug and it had oil on it. Oil is getting into that cylinder somehow. If not rings, must be valves. Right??

    41 9n with oil fouled plug - original

    So, I got a new tester. I ran the tractor and warmed it up. Took compression test dry, at least 4-5 cranks, until needle stopped. added 1 tablespoon of 5w-30 in each cylinder. waited one minute to let oil settle around rings in each cylinder before taking wet test. Here are the numbers 1 - 94...

    41 9n with oil fouled plug - original

    I had a chance to really work my 41 9N yesterday dragging a 6 1/2' harrow in wet heavy rocky loam. It was mostly a test to see how the tractor would do. This is the first heavy work I have done with it since getting it going. It had been running a little rough and sputtering under load so I...
