    Starter issue with my 1936 road grader with I-12 engine

    I was going to weld the broken spring, but went to NAPA in North Bend, WA and while they were able to match a replacement for the starter, there was not an option to order or purchase. They quick stated that I would need to go to Romaine Electric in Renton, WA. I called and they had the part in...

    Starter issue with my 1936 road grader with I-12 engine

    With all your help I was able to rebuild the carb and also flushed the radiator and the engine started first push of the button. I made the first pass of the driveway with the grader. I took a break and was going to finish grading the driveway after lunch. Well the starter would not engage.....I...

    Cleaning outside of IH I20 brass carb

    I must have been smoking it yesterday...:ROFLMAO:...The Carb is from an I-12 engine not a I-20 engine. This is the same as the F-12 engine.

    Cleaning outside of IH I20 brass carb

    Most of the damage on the jet was previous owner but I did try. I was also able to get a carb rebuild kit and a new float. The original had a large repair with solder. Thank you!

    Cleaning outside of IH I20 brass carb

    Thank you! I did see your earlier post on the Delco penetrating fluid. I will try that. I also think you might be correct on the jet doing more damage than good. Regards.

    1936 Adams Road Grader I-12 engine Radiator flushing recommendations

    Thanks. I am back online. I will take your advice, but think I will complete in 2 stages. Clean radiator as best I can in place in the grader, then fall/winter project and do your recommendation. Thanks for the advice.

    1936 Adams Road Grader I-12 engine Radiator flushing recommendations

    Thank you all. I didn't want to use harsh chemicals. I just cleaned a flywheel that had very minor surface rust with vinegar. It worked amazingly. I will use vinegar.

    1936 Adams motor grader I-12 radiator cap

    Wow that is a lot if input! Thank you! So I can turn the cap, but I can only turn the wingnut/bolt about 90 degrees. I think what I see is the wingnut/bolt might be hitting rust that prevents the bolt from turning more. I should be able to turn or work the bolt to continue to loosen it. I...

    1936 Adams motor grader I-12 radiator cap

    Hopefully will bring this to the top. The snow has melted and was able to try to get the radiator cap removed. NO luck. I have been aligning, rotating the wingnut, rotating the cap and then rotating both simultaneously for 15-20 minutes. I am feeling like I am trying to break the code to a...

    1936 Adams motor grader I-12 radiator cap

    Thank you. I think this is the same for IH-12 and some F-12 radiators. Does the crossbar turn to a "slot" that would allow the radiator cap to be removed? Thanks again for your help.

    1936 Adams motor grader I-12 radiator cap

    I worked on my 1936 motor grader this summer. I have not driven in a year as the gas tank was horribly gunked up on the inside. I finally figured out how to remove the tank. I was able to pressure wash the inside and then etched it and reinstalled. I was then checking all the fluids and my...
