    Hole in transmission housing

    TEs had aluminum alloy transmission housing. Not sure how that would TIG weld. Might have to rig a patch of some sort.

    Generator RF?

    I might add that worn generator brushes might also cause electrical noise.

    Generator RF?

    Copper sparkplug wires will create lots of electrical noise. Noise suppression is helped by using carbon sparkplug wires which is not recommended for your tractor. I believe resistor plugs also helped reduce noise. Sometimes capacitors on generating system were used to reduce electrical noise.

    draw bar

    The other might be a swinging drawbar that is pinned under the tractor and placed on the drawbar attached to the 3pt lift arms.

    TO20 Tool Kit?

    Our 1952 TO-30 was used as demonstrator before my dad bought it. I still have the 3/8 and 7/16 wrench that came with it. I think my dad carried it in his pocket for many years. On one end of the "handle" for lack of better term you can make out an HF. I don't remember the 1/2 and 9/16. We...

    Hydraulic port

    Pressure out of that port depends on the position of your 3 point lift lever. Up is pressure or flow. Down is no pressure or flow. In between is a good question. Its like trying to hold your three point at a certain position. Basically you are tapped into the pressure feed to the three point...

    Hydraulic port

    We ran our TO 30 on wheel disc with single acting cylinder. It returned through the pressure port. If you go double acting you will need a valve for that and a place to return oil. We had to chain the lift arms down to the axle to have continuous pressure or flow available. Otherwise when the...

    Coil resistance values for 12v To-35

    Have you checked to see the condition of your spark. Will it jump 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch? Not reddish or yellow but blue? Engines can run good no load and then miss out under load. Even new sparkplugs can do this after a short time. Some tractors are worse about this than others. If you...

    TO-20 Hydraulics

    We broke the arm that rotates the rockshaft cultivating with 44 again. The arm the hydraulic ram pushes against. Dad backed up the tractor 1/4 mile to the house. Never broke it again.

    Switching TO 35 exhaust from horizontal to vertical.

    I have TO-30 that had a vertical muffler on it. It had a one piece "U" shape pipe and muffler that connected to the manifold and a brace that strapped it to the manifold. I burned my arm more than once on that thing when getting to the tool box in front of the gas tank. I prefer the muffler...

    Ferguson bonnet emblem

    Someone suggested placing a thin layer of grease or vaseline on a piece of flat cardboard. Place emblem carefully on film of grease on cardboard so that the part you don't want painted is covered with grease. Spray paint and let dry. Wipe off grease. I have done this several times and am...
