    Case IH 5100 Drill Question

    Additional note: I think it's odd that both adjustment levers jam in almost the same low and high positions. As far as I can tell, the levers are completely independent from each other, they control two different sets of seed cups. Does this suggest that someone may have played around with the...

    Case IH 5100 Drill Question

    Thanks for all comments and suggestions. I've cleaned and lubed everything so the adjustment levers move fairly easily. The problem remains that neither lever will go all the way to one or zero and won't go upwards of 10 or so. The problem is not lubing or junk in the way. Looking underneath, I...

    Case IH 5100 Drill Question

    Love the Deere tractor -- 4020? I do a lot of my farming with a '61 3010, see picture. Terrific tractor. I wouldn't mind having a 4020 though. Real brutes. Buying lots of PB Blaster tomorrow. Luckily the hoarders haven't gone after that.

    Case IH 5100 Drill Question

    A few weeks ago I acquired a Case 5100 grain drill, 21x7 with 20 inch wheels. Very similar overall to the Case IH 510. It needed some minor repairs but basically is rust free and complete. I now have everything set the way I want but encountered a problem with the two feed control levers. They...

    Old Reliable 3010 Won't Start - Ideas Needed

    A John Deere tech was here today for almost two hours. Pretty sharp tractor guy. We went over everything again, spark, timing, fuel, throttle position, idle screw, etc. I had my big charger there so we could crank the engine fast. It fired off ether fine, otherwise not a cough. Next step - put...

    Old Reliable 3010 Won't Start - Ideas Needed

    Not ethanol. I run all the tractors on pure gas.

    Old Reliable 3010 Won't Start - Ideas Needed

    My 1961 3010 gas has been extremely reliable for nearly 10 years. Last year near the end of haying season it started to miss under load running the haybine, lose power. By the end of haying it would barely run at all. Over the winter, I've gone through all the usual fixes: new distributor parts...

    Pics of my refreshed TO-35

    You have the iPhone upside down. It will take pictures both ways, but you need to have the lens in the lower right corner for pictures to be right side up. My iPad is the same way.

    TO-35 serial number and Ferguson plow

    I've opened a new thread on my hard-working TO-35 (tedding hay today). Some of you fellow TO35 owners asked about the serial number. It is 140468. I think that places its build date fairly early in the 1955 run, which starts at #14006. I neglected to mention that the eBay seller also had the...

    Pics of my refreshed TO-35

    Very nice looking tractor! It may be the governor. When the TO35 is picking up load going uphill, the governor does a great job of maintaining RPMs if you have given it enough throttle. On your tractor, it could be the worn washer, or lack of lubrication, or a weak spring (I replaced mine just...

    Pics of my refreshed TO-35

    The car under the cover is a 1958 Buick Roadmaster 4-door hardtop. It is a partial restoration I'm having a hard time finishing - just don't have a lot of time to devote to it.

    Pics of my refreshed TO-35

    The chassis green is an interesting issue. When I received my TO35, the chassis green was lighter than any paint code I could find as "correct." I ordered some "correct" automotive Dupont green (1968 Cadillac color) and found that it was very dark, much darker than the paint on the tractor which...
