    problem with Stieger Bearcat not starting

    It started fine at first, started moving around the yard to the fuel tanks, it started sputtering, coughing, struggling for fuel ( I think ) and then died. Last spring the solenoid on the rear of the fuel pump had a loose post. It isn't loose this spring and it is acting like it has no fuel...

    Old JD dealer name in Johnstown Oh

    There once was a JD dealer in johnstown Ohio where our 420 was purchased. The dealer decal was to far gone to copy and have a new one made for the restoration. Does anyone know the name of the dealer or have a pic of a dealer decal from there? Thanks in advance?

    420w front blade

    We have a John Deere under slung front blade with all the brackets etc. for a 420w waiting in the weeds for its turn in the shop. I will admit I don't know if several models were made for the 420 or if just one. Any ideas on the model? I would like to get a it book for it if they are...

    420 PTO won't engage/is it live PTO?

    Halfway down on the clutch will stop your motion, all the way down will stop the pto and your motion. Most 5 speeds had live pto's from what I understand. Try shifting the pto into gear with the tractor off then start it. If it goes into pto gear you either need to adjust the clutch travel...

    57 420W Finished

    Well, after 3 years of on and off work its finished. Nothing like a little father son time to renew and restore the old family farm tractor. We had our doubts when its was completely dissembled and scattered around the shop, if we would ever get it finished! Seeing the smile on my dads face when...

    Will a 1010 touchomatic fit on a 420W

    Sure will. Just did it last year. From what I have viewed, read and understand the 420's thru 1010's were basickly the same from the transmission back.

    Anyone ever use Toms tractor painting in Ohio?

    A friend of mine just had a WD-45 restored at "Toms tractor painting" here in Ohio. The old WD looks nice! I have sheet metal for a JD that needs minor tin work and paint. Only seeing one tractor he's painted, I am curious if anyone has any good or bad results if you have used his services?

    Tom Ziegler Thank you! 420w oil pump set screw

    I ordered two oil pump set screws from Tom Ziegler last week. I was happy to see them in the mailbox this morning.. Very fast service! Our attempts to get the broken screw out with an easy out failed. It laughed at a cobalt bit.. Plan B, weld nut to the stud.. Not enough sticking out and not...

    420w Oil Pump Timimg Set Screw

    I called Deere today to ask about the oil pump timing set screw for our 420. (Item 39 on the parts pic) I refuse to pay 50 bucks for a set screw! I am confident that it will come out of the block with little effort. My main question is if I take it out and don't turn the motor over, can I just...
