    '39 9N Electrical

    Well guys, I finally got the 2N up and running this afternoon. Think I had an issue with the coil not making good contact and the fact that the plug wires were also grounding out in a couple of places. I also discovered that the new float seat in the carburetor was sticking. I still have an...

    '39 9N Electrical

    Okay, I have fire at the plugs now. Think it may have been the pigtail not making good contact. The issue now is that it is not starting or even trying. One thing I have noticed is the new plug wires that came with the tune-up kit leak. I have seen three arcs from different plug wires to...

    '39 9N Electrical

    I have another question or two: 1. I installed a new 9N-12250 BALLAST RESISTOR. What should the resistance reading be on this resistor? The reason I ask is that I am not getting any fire at the plugs. The resistance I am reading is 0.2 ohms. 2. Do I need the EXTERNAL IN-LINE 1-OHM CERAMIC...

    '39 9N Electrical

    Just for information...I have been doing a good bit of research on my tractor. I cleaned the paint off the serial number and have decided it isn't a '39 9N, but a 1945 2N. I didn't think what looked like a letter next to the right star was part of the serial number, but as it turned out it is. I...

    1972 JD 450B Dozer Not moving in forward grears

    Thank you for the information. I have not started working on the 450 yet. I am waiting for the weather to cool down a bit!

    '39 9N Electrical

    JMOR, I really appreciate you sending the wiring diagram. It is similar to what I had, but much detailed and clearer as well. I will get one of the original resistors and proceed. Thank you very much!

    '39 9N Electrical

    I guess I should have taken a photo of the way the wiring was done as it was when I purchased it a few weeks ago so you could really see a mess. As I stated in my original post, someone had previously put together a 12v conversion, but it was a mess. I do not know what happened to the OEM parts...

    '39 9N Electrical

    I recently purchased a 1939 9N that had not been running for a couple of years, supposedly not to issues with the tractor but a divorce. Someone had done a 12 volt conversion, but it was very messy and fairly old looking. Anyway, I purchased the 12 volt conversion kit #AKT0001, Maintenance kit...

    1972 JD 450B Dozer Not moving in forward grears

    I appreciate your reply. I figured the clutches were bad due to the oil, the smell, and not moving properly. I was afraid it was something wrong with the transmission as well.

    1972 JD 450B Dozer Not moving in forward grears

    The compartment on the left side does have some oil in it. Where would the oil be coming from? I am not losing engine oil. To explain further on how the tractor is operating...Everything works well until it gets heated up, then it starts getting sluggish about changing from forward to reverse...

    1972 JD 450B Dozer Not moving in forward grears

    Roy I appreciate the reply. But can address the issue with fluid shooting out of the bung hole? I have the pressure gauge screwed into the fitting with no leaks around that fitting, but fluid shoots out of the bung hole in a stream. This may be the problem that I have some sore of internal leak...

    1972 JD 450B Dozer Not moving in forward grears

    Sorry about getting back...Rain and other things going on. I do have a question. When checking the transmission pressure through the bung fitting should fluid be shooting out through that hole? I have my pressure gauge installed correctly but fluid pumps out through the bung hole opening...

    1972 JD 450B Dozer Not moving in forward grears

    It has been a bit since I changed the transmission filter screen. I have used the dozer a few of time since, today being the last. It operated as it should until everything gets "heated up" then it quits wanting to go in reverse and is very sluggish about going into a forward gear. I did notice...

    1972 JD 450B Dozer Not moving in forward grears

    Guys, sorry about being slow to get back with you. We have had lots of rain (still getting it) and a tornado came through our place on Friday. Mainly destroyed trees and fencing. Came close to the house, but thankfully no damage. Anyway, I changed the transmission filter/screen in the tranny...

    1972 JD 450B Dozer Not moving in forward grears

    I have read several posts that are similar to the issue with my dozer, but not exactly - Hopefully someone will be able to shed some light. As stated I have a 1972 JD 450B dozer. A few months back I had the steering clutches and brakes replaces - all works well. Just recently the 450B started...
