    AC B Cam gear timing mark (older vs newer)

    Dick, I have read with great interest some of your other posts about shimming bearings and filling bearings. I got my rebuild set in and am starting to check the main bearings. I have no history with how this engine ran before teardown. Engine was stuck from rain down exhaust. Crankshaft was...

    AC B Cam gear timing mark (older vs newer)

    Thanks Dick, I unlike you, am just beginning my experience with vintage tractors and figuring out the quirks of these engines, but it bugged my why the marks were so different on the two gears. Last night i took the older gear and added marks that matched those on the newer gear. I stuck the...

    AC B Cam gear timing mark (older vs newer)

    Oops, that didn't work too good. Let me try to get the service manual text again.

    AC B Cam gear timing mark (older vs newer)

    Oh Wow!! Didn't mean to make go out with a walker to check on something but I appreciate your help. Camshaft and gear were together and came from a tractor that was parted out and was labeled as an AC B. Both camshafts have the same numbers 206973 and both have the oil holes. Only difference I...

    AC B Cam gear timing mark (older vs newer)

    Thanks Dick. I have seen that picture before and agree with what you say, but my problem is that I have two cam gears that if stacked together with the keyways lined up have the timing marks at different spots around the gears. If I just align to the factory marks, the replacement gear is going...

    AC B Cam gear timing mark (older vs newer)

    Yes, governor is on magneto drive gear. My main concern is having the cam timed correctly to crank. If I'm thinking right, with 46 teeth on cam gear one tooth would be ~8 degrees off. Unless I can find some reason not to, I'm probably going to use the teeth that match the original gear teeth...

    AC B Cam gear timing mark (older vs newer)

    I have a 1953 B that is in process of being restored after sitting uncovered for years. As a result the cam was pitted beyond use. I acquired a good cam with gear that looks better than the original, less pitting on gear teeth. My question is that the two gears have timing marks in different...

    Rustoleum Farm & Implement Paint

    Great info guys, that's what I was looking for, someone who had actually used it and had some real results. I found the Krylon 1820 at NAPA up the street so I'll see how that works.

    Rustoleum Farm & Implement Paint

    Has anyone used the Rustoleum Farm & Implement Allis Chalmers Orange paint? Would like to know how it matches original Persian orange color and also how well it performs, how quick to dry and anything else important. I can't find anyone local that carries it, Lowes and TSC can order but have...
