    help identify part I need

    If it is not threaded, It's possible the draincock busted off in the block, leaving what appears to be an un-threaded hole, but what is actually the remaining pipe nipple.

    elbow fuel screens falling off

    Bill, The screen on my sediment bowl was loose also. I used a small amount of 2 part epoxy around the base and it works fine now. Regards, Old Fossil

    12v Conversion install on 8n

    I'm not sure if this will be relevant, but if your new alternator is too close to the manifold, is it possible you are using the wrong fan belt?

    9n charging troubles

    JMOR, jumper on V/R and on Gen, we get 6? amps + on Ameter. Jumper on V/R only, we get 3? amp discharge on Ameter. Jumper on Generator only we get 3? amp discharge on Ameter. Analog test meter across battery terminals shows very slight charge with both jumpers on and no change with either or...

    9n charging troubles

    JMOR, the two jumper wires, when put in place temporarily,to bypass the V/R, will I look for charge on the dash ameter or should I use an analog test meter? and if so, is it between the Bat term of V/R and Neg term of Battery?

    9n charging troubles

    quote="JMOR"](quoted from post at 10:12:12 09/13/13) Old Fossil e is correct that he doesn't work on many generators! There is no such animal as "internally wired" as pos or neg ground generator. The ONLY thing that makes a generator output pos or neg is how it was last polarized, which sets...

    9n charging troubles

    Bruce, I confirmed that the generator is an A circuit with the motoring test. Ordered and installed a new V/R and still we do not charge. Took the generator and both V/R's to a local shop that rebuilds alternators/starters, etc.. The gentleman put the Generator on his test bench and ran it with...

    installing a set of sway bars...

    Pierce, I have had good luck with a Sawzall outfitted with a long metal cutting blade. A good quality bi-metal blade will bend and flex quite a bit, perhaps enough to get in your tight quarters. of course, you'll have to purchase new bolts. Best of luck.

    9n charging troubles

    will try the jumper to the generator test tomorrow, Who knows if it's the correct V/R now, because its the 3rd one since I bought the tractor, and back then it was a real 'Frankenstein', what with all the misc. repair jobs over the years. Thanks for all your help.

    9n charging troubles

    Bruce, my generator has 3 wires coming from it. 1 from terminal marked GND, 1 from terminal marked FLD, and 1 heavier wire from back of gennerator (ARM). Is this the A circuit you referenced?

    Gas line issue or gas tank?

    wparris, I'm no tractor expert, but if indeed the gas tank has a extra hole in it from wear, who knows how much debris is in the tank at this point. Also, as many others have posted here before, do not install an 'in-line' aftermarket fuel filter as they can reduce fuel flow to carb. Best of...
