    Reinstalling my rebuilt starter

    Thanks NoNewParts! Now I have to find the drain holes/cotter pins to be sure they are clear. I have the manual. I guess I can find them in there.

    Reinstalling my rebuilt starter

    Hi Denny, was your 6 Volt starter modified when the conversion was done?

    Reinstalling my rebuilt starter

    Thanks! Where does the flywheel pick up lubricant. I figure it is the crankcase. Do you think that in time that metal paste will be washed into the drainpan?

    Reinstalling my rebuilt starter

    As some of you may know, I'm new to tractors and mechanics and bought a 1948 8N last year as a learning laboratory lol. You guys have been very patient with me and helpful. I'm trying to reinstall a starter that I had rebuilt. While I was trying to position it in place I used my finger...

    Starter re-installation

    I just have a quick question about re-installing a starter I had rebuilt. Is any lubrication necessary between the flywheel and the gears of the starter that engage it? If so, what type/weight of lubricant is best for this? Thanks!

    Starter

    Thanks everyone. It's a 12 Volt conversion. It's probably the wiring. It's been a mess since I got it. JMOR and others have helped me with the diagrams and I'm going to tackle that as soon as school is out for the Summer. My neighbor thinks it may be the starter and I just thought that...

    [b:e7eed4fb0f]Hey Guys, My 1948 8N started right up when I took her out of the shed this Spring. I was able to plow and disk the garden but now she won't start. I think the problem may be the starter but I don't know how to tell if it is. What is the best way to test the...

    Wire gauges

    I just noticed that my alternator has more than one wire running to it but none of the JMOR diagrams show anything like that. Does anyone know of a diagram that would show such a schematic? Thanks

    Wire gauges

    Thanks swpaguy. I had found that one but some of the wires are not marked. Such as the wiring to the lamps, and a couple of other ones. I think that may be for the original 6V as well.

    Wire gauges

    [b:676b809fb9]Hello, I'm rewiring my old 8N which was converted to 12V at some point in the past. With the help of folks here I located JMOR's excellent wiring diagrams however there is not note of what gauges that should be used. I'm wondering if the color code indicates gages or circuits...
