    Odd noises and no power on 651 ford

    I'll try that, but I have made all kinds of adjustments to that carb. And it still makes that noise and lacks power.

    Odd noises and no power on 651 ford

    I need some advice. I just fininshed rebuilding a 651. New pistons, sleeves, bearings and had the head redone (new valves seats, spring guides etc.) by a machine shop. It’s all back together and when I got it running there is a definite noise coming from the air cleaner. At low idle you can’t...

    8N IGNITION

    I converted my 8N to 12 volts years ago and it runs like a top. I have the front mount distributer, and 12 volt coil that sits on top. In this application you need the extra resistor. Now for the side mount distibuter some 12 volt coils have a bult in resistor so adding and extra resistor...

    governor repair

    I have a 651, that I am rebuilding. My question is about the governor. I have the latter type with the two rollers. The bearings appear to have flat spots on them. The thing is the flat spots don"t really look like wear. There are two flat spots on each bearing. 180 degrees apart. My...

    Oil pressure and worn bearings

    I recently purchased a 651, the oil pressure was really good around 65 psi cold and 50 psi when it was warmed up. One problem was that the rear seal was leaking. So I decided to pull off the motor and replace the two sets of seals. Once I got the engine on the stand I thought I might as well...

    maytag neptune

    If anyone is in the market for a very good high efficiency washer I would recommed a Staber. Three years ago I bought one and it was a very good investment. It uses hardly any detergent and little water. It is built well, and if anything goes wrong it is designed so that the owner can fix it...

    How to pick up an 800 engine

    I have made a jig to remove a case-o-matic unit. I looked at the pictures of the Case made unit. Then I made a wooden mockup out of scrap wood, to get the demesions right. Then bought the steel bar, and my father-in-law helped me weld it all together. It worked like a charm, the COM unit...

    How to pick up an 800 engine

    When I removed the engine off my 830, I took two short lenths of chain and bolted them to the four valve cover studs. This way I could balance the load by adjusting the lenth of either chain.

    Ready to install torque converter

    I did not need to replace the clutch, it worked perfect. The problem was that the seals leaked badly, when I used the tractor all the fluid in the converter housing would be pushed into the standard transmission case. If you wanted to keep working you had to keep pouring in more oil. If you let...

    Ready to install torque converter

    I've just finished putting new seals and a bushing in my 830 case-o-matic torque converter. My question is the nylock capscrew that attaches the PTO shaft to the front of the torque converter. When I first removed the capscrew there were bits of a hard black substance on it and they just flaked...
