    Carb??

    Hi 8N jdawg, Is this a new/old aluminum clone, new/old cast iron clone, Marvel Schebler, or Zenith, or...? Pics are 👍 Could be plugged up as old posted.:) How does it run? If the main jet is too small, once the main adjusting needle is open to that orifice size, turning it out farther would...

    Bent PTO Shaft Blues

    Could take the housing and see it it does fit into the pump, while the pump is just sitting on the floor, and not heavy.😀

    Bent PTO Shaft Blues

    Wonder if you install the housing, then back off the 4 mounting bolts a bit, so it can be wiggled, then fit the pump in, then tighten up the bolts? 8n pump and pto shifter. Ears barely fit.

    Bent PTO Shaft Blues

    I like your drawing 😃 No visable damage. Hmm. Is your top cover off, giving a clear view of the starboard housing ear not fitting into the pump? Pump would fit it housing wasnt installed?

    Bent PTO Shaft Blues

    Have you tried to find a replacement housing assy? I'm not sure if a Ford N series interchanges or not. Here is a 8n 718 If mount yours at an angle to the countershaft gears dentals, will it couple properly? 8n countershaft

    Bent PTO Shaft Blues

    Orings not paper, got it. Is pto bearing support housing ( pto shifter) also the trans countershaft bearing housing? Would shimming foul up the bearing alignment for the countershaft?

    Bent PTO Shaft Blues

    Not side covers, pump valve chambers. I see the pump side chambers for your TO-30, are also the same as 8n. They use a paper gasket. Some aftermarket chambers themselves were too wide also. Click on to see...

    Bent PTO Shaft Blues

    Ive not had a Ferguson, but have had many old Fords. I see on this site a T0-30 pto shaft is the same part # as 8ns use. Did you test fit the new pto shaft to see if the splined end fit all the way through the pump? Believe I remember some splines on 8ns were not made properly, and needed...

    Parting ways

    When water gets into the air filter, it can lift the oil in the bottom cup, over the fill line, such that the engine sucks oil along with air through the carb, causing blue smoke. ( @ Mad Farmer )

    Jubilee oil leak

    Hi wakenicky, Is this cotter pin present, and loose, letting engine oil, or trans fluid leak out? If the hole is plugged, a leaky trans seal, or engine rear main seal will spill fluid/oil into the bell housing area, and will accumulate, and can be flung around by the flywheel.

    Pic from 3729-G showes the head of the clutch adjusting bolt head under the arm like yours is Here are some observations from my late 52 8n on clutch engagement heights. Would think your older arm design would share similar outcomes. If changing the bolt height 3 threads, it would change the...

    Free 1947 Ford 8N

    Not sure if pedal travel changes with wear. The adjustment on the clutch linkage bolt can be too short, leaving a clutch that wont disengage. Looks like your bolt head is under the arm, compared to the John Smith Pic where the bolt head is actually contacting the arm? Do you have the 3729-G...

    any difference for a positive or negative ground front mount distributer on 8n

    I have seen a 12 volt neg ground Pertronix Loaded Voltage Test, do you have a 6 volt pos ground version, or other? Before installing your new distributor, check the point gap ( .015 ), and clean the points contact surfaces. The corrosion prohibiter on the new points isn't conductive, so no...
