    9N tool box

    I just acquired a 1940 9N Ford tractor. The tool box is attached to the hood. It looked like the sheet metal was indented for it to be attached, and it looked like a factory job, but I"ve never seen a tool box placed there. Has anyone else seen this placement, or is it just a pretty good job...

    Waldon 5000 loader

    Actually, this is also a forklift. The forks were made over from a fork lift to fit on the Waldon - not the neatest job, but it works.

    Waldon 5000 loader

    My brother bought a Waldon 5000 loader which started out as propane, but the last owner switched it over to gasoline power. It has a Ford 172 ci engine and Ford rear ends. The serial number is 7335. We were wondering what year it is. Are there any serial number charts for Waldon?

    Bolens Groundskeeper

    I went through the registration and had to answer 3 different times questions like You use your garden tractor to mow ___. Lawn? No that wasn't right - answer another. I finally got through that and they said they would e-mail for confirmation. OK. The e-mail said to click on a link to...

    Bolens Groundskeeper

    Thank you for the information. I've been trying to get on the website, but it is extremely complicated, and I am not permitted to ask any questions on their forum, or to get to the forum for that matter.

    Bolens Groundskeeper

    I'm looking for some information on the Bolens Groundskeeper tractor. I recently purchased one of these articulated machines (pretty much complete but needing a lot of tlc to bring it back). It has a 2-cylinder 18hp Wisconsin model THD, serial number 4370482, 3 1/4 x 3 1/4 engine. That makes...

    Timing on a Briggs and Stratton engine

    Magnetron. In fact, he picked up 2 parts. One is from NAPA and was just supposed to be a new coil. The other is from a hardware/Briggs dealer and is the module. They both look the same, except one has a nodule that would bring it closer to the magnet on the flywheel. Another guy he...

    Timing on a Briggs and Stratton engine

    The flywheel has never moved and the key hasn't been sheared. He's trying to replace the old points and condensor system with this new solid state system sold by Briggs as a replacement.

    Timing on a Briggs and Stratton engine

    It'e cast iron, but the module replaces the points and condensor. The module is on a bracket and looks like it can be moved left to right. Also, the depth gauge can go from about 9 one-thousandth to 12 one-thousandth. The spark is very faint, yellow and weak, and the engine kicks back...

    Timing on a Briggs and Stratton engine

    My friend has a 1976 model 1430 Speedex tractor with a 14hp engine. It has a syncro-balance engine with a rope pull to start it. It won"t spark and he can"t find replacement parts, so he purchased a coil module (dealer advice) - a magnapulse ignition. It still wasn"t sparking, so he tried to...

    712 New Holland Rock Crusher

    We recently acquired this rock crusher and are trying to find some information about it - year, colors it was supposed to be, etc. Any manuals available? I tried the New Holland web site, but only found a little general information about when they started manufacturing rock crushers.
