    starting a Model D

    On the carburator....I believe I have it adjusted to were it should run. I don't claim alot of real knowledge here so I may not have it really right. Is there a different setting that I should use for starting versus when its running an warm?

    starting a Model D

    I believe the timing is right. I will double check that first. All the feedback has me suspecting weak spark so I'll then verify the impulse is working properly, points are good and clean, maybe new spark plugs and wires. We will see where it goes from there. I at least have confidence that...

    starting a Model D

    Thanks much for your suggestions. I have had both the carb and the mag professionally rebuilt. It has been a while but hardly any running hours have been logged on either. Must still have a poor fuel mixture or weak spark. Is there a way to tell when the fuel mix is right? I will re-check...

    36 John Deere Model D fuel tank

    Thanks much for the info. Do you know what distance the top of the radiator is from the engine block? And maybe what the distance is from the engine block to the top of the front and rear tank brackets? Any other ideas regarding the hood slope? Thanks much for your help.

    36 John Deere Model D fuel tank

    I have a '36 D that I have been working on (off and on) for a few years. The hood sits about an inch high towards the rear of the tractor. As near as I can tell it must have the wrong fuel tank. It looks like the AD1011R but I was wondering if anyone has the height dimension of that tank. The...
