    Ford 9N points and time keep changing

    Check the bushing in the nose of the distributor. There may be cracks in the support or on the base legs, which would allow it to move.

    Easy starting 8n ain't

    Check the coil leads. The + side should go to the distributor on a positive ground system. Point gap should be .025 on a side mount distributor, .015 on front mounts. Check the point gap at several locations to be sure the shaft is not bent or the bushings worn out.

    Clutch not wanting to disengage

    Check the linkage arms for cracks before you split the tractor. It could also be a cracked throw out bearing fork.

    Ed S in Il or other hay cutters

    We have used a Dearborn 6 ft sickle mower behind our 9N but it is a pain to mount and plugs up often if the field is damp. Now we pull a 7ft NH 467 mower/conditioner with an 801 Ford tractor.

    Valve Assembly Question

    Some replacement seals are slightly oversize. When you put the guide in place it shaves off a little bit of the outer edge. They do seem to work OK. Thank the Chinese.

    Has anyone replaced a Steering Box

    9N steering can jump out of time if they hit something hard. Sort of a safety device to protect the gear. Remove both tie rods from the front spindles. Move the left sector arm completely to the rear, and the right arm completely to the front. Gradually lower both arms untill they engage the...
