    8N Mowing Problem?

    The "throttle" lever is actually a governor RPM control. If you have it set in the same place, the governor will try to keep the engine RPM's at that speed. 3/4 on the quadrant should always result in the same engine speed. The governor will change the throttle setting in an attempt...

    Tractor Canvas Covers

    It may be easier and cheaper to buy one of those "portable garage" tent units from Costco. That has the advantage of having some spare room endwise to keep implements out of the rain, and you can do minor maintenance "indoors."

    ammeter

    On your ammeter, B probably means "battery" and L means "Load". Most modern ammeters are designed for negative ground systems, so the odds are you should hook it up backwards. In other words, attach the B terminal to the ignition (and lights) side of the circuit and the L terminal to the...

    Super 8n

    I'll bet that the same stylists designed the sheetmetal on both products. Common in those days. Now they have design studios in LA and Asia.

    Super 8n

    That is a hood emblem from a 1946-48 Ford car. There were emblems for Super Deluxe "8" and Super Deluxe "6". Those might be the finishing touch for a Funk conversion!

    diagnos steering problem ?

    I live in Dallas. Should be pretty close. I had to replace the gears in our 2N because they would jump a tooth. I was astonished at how badly the gears were worn when I took it apart. I'm suprised that they engaged at all. When you say slip, do you mean that you turn the wheel and the...

    Steering Problem

    If it is not the brake, then jack up the front end of the tractor and try to move the wheels each direction with the steering wheel. Are the wheels aligned properly? If not, then the steering sectors may have jumped a tooth. This is common on the 9N and 2N when the teeth get worn. I had...

    Never seize

    The reason that never seize is not recommended for lug nuts is the theory that a lubricant will allow the nut to "slip" and back off with use. In order for this be practical, the fasteners (both stud and nut) must have a plating in good condition that prevents the threads from galling and...

    ATF ?

    I would not work the engine real hard (like plowing) with the ATF in there, but half-throttle lawn mowing would be fine.

    Bush Hog gear grease

    I have an old 48" Mowhawk that my father got 40 years ago. He ran over a barb wire fence and took out the lower seal soon after. I tried to get it apart and could not get the blade hub off the shaft, so he put a grease fitting in the fill plug and pumped it full of grease. It has been that...

    steering box grease.

    I ended up with three 5-gallon buckets of #00 lube. Does anyone have 300 gearboxes they need to change the lube in?

    bridged rectifer

    Stupid question: Does the rated voltage have anything to do with how much current the diode will pass at a much lower voltage?
