    48 Cub Smokes

    Thanks Old, It's looks gray to me. It has sat a month or two since it's last chore, but it's smoked while being used ever since I got it. It's enough smoke to kind of choke you out driving it. What do you mean by the ATF method? I am just looking at where to start to figure out...

    48 Cub Smokes

    My new to me 48 Cub starts to smoke when there is any type of load on it (driving, pulling, ect). It doesn't seem to smoke at all at idle. Looks like it's burning oil? I'm not sure if this would mean valve issues or ring issues. Should I borrow a compression gauge and start with that? What would...

    JD MT dash

    In the dash, what's the small hole directly above the main switch for? I thought someone drilled it but seen several more with the same hole. Just curious.

    2N Decals

    I don't have their catalog. I found the decals I got on the website but no pictures on where to place it. I would greatly appreciate pictures if you have time, thanks!

    2N Decals

    I agree, but I wasn't sure if it goes on the top or the bottom of the oil filter, ect. The decals I got didn't include any instructions.

    2N Decals

    Anyone have pics of where the decal stickers go for a 1947 2N? I found a couple of links back to this site but all the pictures were gone. Thanks!

    Wiring for the front lights

    On 6V is there any harm with running the wire though the spark plug tube then over to the lights?

    Priming the motor

    I just did this a couple of weeks ago. I put oil in the behind the relief spring and cranked a bit but it didn't register any pressure. Maybe I didn't crank enough? I decided to take out the plugs and had a friend pull me slowly with my key off and in high gear until my gauge registered...

    Two Governor Questions

    The 8N motor I bought did not have a governor so I have to use the one from the original motor. I needed to move the stud since there isnt one on the new motor. I thought it would be easy double nut and remove but it wont budge. That is why I need to know the size and length of bolt to get...

    Two Governor Questions

    I am replacing my original 1947 2N motor with a 1948 8N motor. I was getting ready to put the original 2N governor on the 8N motor. The original motor had a stud on the top. I tried double nutting and heating it but it will not come out. I finally messed up the threads trying to get it out...

    2N wiring harness

    Thanks Bruce. I'm using bolts instead of the studs that you have suggested in other threads. Do you leave off the washer where the tube and governor bracket attaches?

    2N wiring harness

    Putting a 2N back together and I bought a new wiring harness for it. Does the two wires for the generator and the coil go though the spark plug wire tube to the front or not?
