    Looking for spool spring source

    The one in the picture is from the single acting spool and is fine. The one I'm replacing shattered over the winter. Came out like a stack of lock washers.

    Looking for spool spring source

    That's a good thought, I'll check Dennis Carpenter. It's a compression spring. Seems to be about an 1-1/4 long and 7/8 OD.

    Looking for spool spring source

    Hi all, I have a Dearborn 19-61 industrial loader on my Ford 600. The spring on the double acting spool on the 19-23 control valve broke this winter while I was plowing and I'm looking for a replacement spring. Does anyone have a good source for these? I'm not coming up with much via Google...

    Dearborn Loader Control Valve Spring Source?

    Hi all! I have a 19-61 industrial loader on my Ford 600 with a 19-23 control valve. Over the winter the spool spring on the double acting spool seems to have shattered into a bunch of pieces (it basically just looks like a stack of washers now). I'm wondering if anyone has a source for...

    Dearborn Loader Flush

    Hi All, My Ford 600 came with a Dearborn loader. But the fluid reservoir frame has been bypassed and a tank mounted on the front. I found some small cracks in the frame. I guess they figured it would be quicker/easier to replace the reservoir than to weld the frame. I'd like to overhaul the...

    Ford 650 struggling to run

    Timing and points were definitely out of whack. My wife stopped and grabbed a feeler gauge set while they were in town this morning. Dialed in the timing, set the points, tuned the carb and she's running like a top. Idles perfectly at 450rpms. Plenty of cosmetics to do and I need to take care...

    Ford 650 struggling to run

    Yay!!! She runs!! I need to do a little gap adjustment (my kit didn't come with a feeler gauge), and carb adjustment, and throttle lever adjustment but she runs so much smoother now! Compost here we come! Thanks for all the tips y'all!

    Ford 650 struggling to run

    Alright. Good news, compression is consistent across all cylinders. So at least I'm not looking at valves or head gaskets at the point. Pulled the plugs and they were pretty black all the way around. Knocked the carbon off with a wire brush but no real improvement. Closer inspection of the...

    I've ordered a spark/compression test kit and will report back. Thanks y'all!

    I did try with the intake disconnected and it didn't seem to make a difference.

    Ford 650 struggling to run

    Our farm is a small 2.5 acre communal (mostly) vegie farm and we've been moving most things by wheelbarrow. We just started really growing the farm this year. The need for the tractor mostly had to do with free compost being available from a pig farm about a mile down the road, more easily...

    Ford 650 struggling to run

    Clarifying a couple of things: With the 12v conversion I also replaced the solenoid, coil (internally resisted) & battery. So all of those should be in good shape. And I do have the shop manual on my phone that I have been using along the way as well.

    Ford 650 struggling to run

    Alright, I seem to have gone beyond what I can adequately google so I think I need a hand from folks more experienced in the tractor world. I bought this 1955 Ford 650 about two weeks ago, this is my first tractor. 3 or 4 days in I stalled it, and struggled to get it started while hot. I...
