    Ford 9N 12 Volt Conversion

    I was just about to start a new thread about this exact problem, that I had resolved, just as a reminder of how simple fixes can sometimes be 😂 I converted my 8N to "upgrade" to a true 12V coil and changed over to a free electronic ignition kit I received from Amazon Vine (product tester...

    New Parts/Wiring and Starting Problem

    Thank you both!! Having never had the correct electrical components (start button, 3 post solenoid, ignition swith) and with the solenoid mounted to the bottom side of the tool box, I wasn't sure about placement of the new solenoid. I did purchase the heavy copper bar to connect it to the...

    New Parts/Wiring and Starting Problem

    I did not try to jumper 12V to the small solenoid terminal. I was considering it and then it started to rain! I don't think that terminal is actually shorted to ground. With the wire connected from the push button, I measured resistance from the small solenoid terminal to ground. It was 3 or 4...

    New Parts/Wiring and Starting Problem

    52 8N side Mount 12V This tractor was converted to 12V by a previous owner. It has an automotive type ignition switch, NO push button start switch and 4 terminal solenoid - and a rat's nest under the dash. Today I installed a push button start switch, a 2 wire key switch and a 3 post solenoid...

    Electronic Ignition Question

    I haven't been on this forum for a very long time but good to see the voices or reason and authority (JMOR, Hobo, TOH, etc.) are still around sharing their wisdom and experience!!

    Electronic Ignition Question

    There were NO instructions! I just went back to the item page on Amazon and it is no longer available :) Looked at a couple other items that were similiar - probably the same - and the reviews on both said no instructions!! :)

    Electronic Ignition Question

    And I may just do that! As an Amazon "tester" I was provided a free no-name electronic ignition module. It has been sitting on the shelf for several months. Finally got my tractor running good again (carb rebuilt and new plugs - 2 were fouled). I am in the process of correcting my wiring to...

    Electronic Ignition Question

    52 8N Side mount distributor 12V My 12V conversion, done many years ago by a previous owner, apparently retained the 6V coil because there is a ceramic resistor in the 12V line feeding the + terminal of the coil. My question is -- when connecting the +/- wires from the electronic ignition...

    8N Solenoid Mounting Screws

    Does anyone know the size screws used to mount the solenoid to the starter?? For all the years I've owned my tractor, I've had a rat's nest of wiring with a 4 post solenoid, no start button, etc., etc., and I'm trying to get it closer to "standard" 12V, side distributor wiring. The current...

    Question About Carb Rebuild

    Since I couldn't find anyone to rebuild my carb, I finally ordered a kit. There is a young lady who does tractor repair videos on YouTube. In her rebuild video she shows the choke valve being positioned one way on the choke shaft. In an animated video from the Jus8Ns YouTube channel it is shown...
