    2N ectronic Ignition Conversion

    I'm also considering changing to EI on my 2N. Rational is ever since the original dist. plate broke (rivet) I have been unable to get a new plate of sufficient quality to get the proper gap and alignment of contact points. The biggest issue I see is the placement of the pivot pin in...

    Tisco Points set

    Update; The points just didn't work. Rubbing block couldn't make contact with the cam so they are being returned. The part guy said I bought the point set for an early 2n and since I have a later model '46 I needed the other set... So in any case they are being returned. I have what I hope...

    Tisco Points set

    Here's what the guy said at YT. Tisco re-packages the bluestreak point set in their set. How can you tell the difference?

    Tisco Points set

    Just received my point set bought from the store here. The brand is Tisco. What I thought I ordered was a blue streak set. Are they the same? Sort of recall that Tisco points set are the cheaper set but the set cost $$

    Great example!!! I replaced the originakl cam several years ago because the tangs were so buggered up but I will check the set I've been running against the original set and the new set that cam with the new dist housing.

    Hmmm.... Don't think I need to get too precise but thanks... I think.... The cam shaft side play was minimul but I guess if the cam flats and lobes were off that would affect point gap and timing.

    Thanks, Still not ruling out op error :lol: pierce, Sound like we have very similar problems but sounds like you required major mods to the plate. Need to run now but will add some info tomorrow. Steve

    JMOR, To set the timing to 1/4 inch it has to be pretty much all the way advanced and this is on all 3 new breaker plates. I am following the FO4 manual as well as all the info I can get from this site and other sites. I've had the tractor for 28 years and never had this timing problem before...

    Distributer Parts

    Thanks Bruce, I'll need to get a mic that measures to that degree and will report back. It may be a while but fortunately I do have another tractor. Based on the tolerances, I do believe that the new parts are out of tolerance. I will be surprised if they are out as all the parts are new but...

    Distributer Parts

    Ordering from the store here. I don't have much time during the week so I'm hoping it will show up by the weekend. I found a crack in the old (assuming original) housing probably from when the old breaker plate broke. It was an 2 piece model and the upper bushing housing riveted to the plate...

    Distributer Parts

    The snowball effect forced me to replace the dist. housing so the lower bushing is new and the upper bushing is also new. There's not much side play but there's a little. Should I still replace? I did just put an order in for the Blue Steak set. Do I take this feedback as others have...

    Distributer Parts

    I have one of those too with a bucket. I didn't for years and now wonder how I ever got along. One of the advantages of the 2n though is it's wide stance and low center of gravity...outperforms my 1520 on hills and in the woods Steve
