    Hey ebay savvy people....

    If you want to sell on eBay, I believe there is a way to block bidders who have feedback scores below a level you decide. Check the selling tools. I am new to ebay and was trying to bid on an item and eBay would not accept my item. I don't recall the exact message, but it said my feedback...

    Sold tractor on ebay should I be worried.

    A wire transfer is best. If not, make sure the check clears and ask the bank to verify that the funds are in your account and cleared. Also, make sure that the funds are US Dollars so you don't get ripped off in any exchange rate mishaps/scams. I don't recall what Australlian currency is...

    magneto

    I have a 2N with 12V battery, starter and Magneto. It seems to work okay, but it has been starting hard of late. Question: How do you know when the magneto is getting bad? Thanks! SmittyN

    Spark Plug Wire Tube?

    I'm in Corunna, which is NE of Lansing. I'm installing new plug wires on the 2N when I recalled that my Dad's 8N had this tube they ran through. I thought maybe it was some kind of heat shield, weather protector, etc. I couldn't remember eactly what it looked like. I think my Dad called it...

    Spark Plug Wire Tube?

    Did the 2N have a tube, which the spark plug wires ran through like the 8N? If so, mine seems to be missing this part. Can you tell me what the name of this part is? Thanks! SmittyN

    Hey there!

    I have to chain my fluid and would like to clean the case without a dismantle at this time. Question: Do you put the kerosene in the pump base from the top or through one of the inspection plates? Thanks! SmittyN

    How NOT to insall a tractor-shed (many photos)

    We put one up for my Dad. We used the 3pt post hole digger. Set some old lenghts of chain in the center of each hole and filled it with concrete. Then bolted the runners to the chain. If we need to move it (which we have), we unbolt, cut the tops off the chain so they don't get caught by the...

    8N Running Rough -- Air Cleaner clogged?

    Hobo & Jack, Thanks for your reply and the advice! The engine spins over easy and I'm not getting any blue smoke. I have some Marvel Mystery Oil (wonderful stuff) in the garage and I'll give it a treatment. I don't know what either (8N or 2N) air filter system looks like so I don't know...

    8N Running Rough -- Air Cleaner clogged?

    Soundguy, Old & Jerry: Thanks for the advice and your replies! I will check the carb, air filter assembly and choke. The tractor does seem to be underpowered. It also reacts slow when throttling up. Checking the air cleaner assembly will be the first order of business. Are there any...

    8N Running Rough -- Air Cleaner clogged?

    I just bought a 8N/2N combo (8N Engine & front axle / 2N sheet metal & Tranny-Rearend) tractor today. I'm new to the N's. It was running pretty rough with lots of black smoke. I leaned out the carb and that cleared up most of it. It's still running a little rough. If the air cleaner is...
