    Crank Pully Movement

    Oldhokie you are exactly right on eliminating that slotted screw. Not the best design to torque to 150 ft lbs and then have to get off. I am going to pull the front end off on Sat so I can get up close and personal with that bolt. You are right the threads I am sure are undamaged. Question will...

    Crank Pully Movement

    Mark's got it right. After some more looking it appears the bolt is a large slotted pan head. The head diameter is slightly smaller than the inside diameter of the pulley. The washer has worn away or disappeared. Now the pulley is free to float. The pulley is the type with the four holes...

    Crank Pully Movement

    I have a side distributor 8n. Today while working on the 12 volt conversion I noticed the crank pulley is free to slide about 1/2 inch off the crank. I did not go any further because I did not want to have to figure out how to put it back on. I got a mirror and looked in the pully center hole...

    Budget 12v Conversion

    Thank you guys so much for your sagely advice. I think I will get the napa IC14SB coil rather than try to sort out the old coils I have. The boat I have does have counter rotating diesels so that was why I had in my head the CCW rotation question. Lastly If I understand correctly the mere...

    Budget 12v Conversion

    Im giving my son an 8n so he can draw firewood out at his new house this winter. I would like to convert it to 12 volts this weekend. I had a couple questions. Will GM Delco Alternators work spinning in either direction? I had a boat once that was diesel and it had a oil pressure activated...

    530 Correct Trans Oil

    Thanks for your advice. I did flush the first reduction compartment two times with K-1 and then refilled with the 80-90. This probably was the area where the noise originated from. I will try to contact Mother Deere to see if the GL-5 is compatable. I would rather trust the opinions of two...

    530 Correct Trans Oil

    Two weeks ago while plowing heavy snow in 2nd my 530 started to make a squealing sound in the trans. I stopped and immediately raised the plow. After about 50' the noise was back. Shut her down and pulled the trans level plug and Nothing. I added between two and three gallons of diesel before...

    I am trying to remove the soft brass float valve seat from a cast iron Marvel upper carb half off of my JD40. This one seems tighter than usual. There is a fibre sealing washer under the seat. Does anyone have any tricks for removing these seats. Will baking in an oven help? What temp?I am...
