First Tractor Choice - Which One?
Thought I would bring everyone up to date on my decision. I bought the Ford for $1100. It is a 1957 Workmaster 641. It is currently non running, and being stored by the seller until I pick it up. It includes an ORC on the PTO, the boom pole, a pond scoop, a box blade, a turning plow, a disc, and... -

First Tractor Choice - Which One?
The economy is bad for the masses, but the federal reserve says otherwise. Bill, fwiw.. I custom tune Chinese scooters, and do some tuning for repair shops and I have noticed a marked increase in the time between them bringing me one and giving the authority to tune. Also I've noticed that... -

First Tractor Choice - Which One?
Cadmium Plating is a 3 step process; Hope the links post. 1st get the rust removed completely. The absolute best way to remove rust is the electrolytic de-rusting procedure. I have used this on bike tanks where they are rusted badly inside, and they cleaned up perfectly. IF you are cleaning a... -

First Tractor Choice - Which One?
RickB, Powder coating is actually cheaper and longer lasting than paint. The problems with it are chipping and not touching up. Which begs the question of how to get paint codes off a tractor? Cadmium plating is easy to do and can be a DIY project @ home so the expense is minimal, in fact it is... -

First Tractor Choice - Which One?
Destroked, THANK YOU! The info you provided allowed me to confirm that the Ford tractor is a 650 WorkMaster. I have been extremely concerned about the brakes, since what I understand they are mechanical and NOT hydraulic. If I am correct, those would be dangerous to use trying to stop 3-4000... -

First Tractor Choice - Which One?
Thank you for the replies! Yes, I knew that some might be biased when I posed this query. Both tractors are in disrepair mechanically and body, but that does not bother me. Maintenance is something I've lived by. Most every vehicle I owned has achieved 250k miles easily, including my E320 The... -

First Tractor Choice - Which One?
Hi, I am about to buy my first tractor for a small retirement farm, which I am also buying. I have researched and found two tractors that interests me. Price wise they are about the same. I am not geographically close enough to inspect, but photos I have spent some time with.They are: 1.. Ford... -

1953 NAA Overheating?
Before you get carried away trying to back flush where the only equipment capable of doing a good job is no longer available, check to see if the radiator is doing its job. Check temp @ inlet and outlet - you should see 30 degrees Fahrenheit or more lower at the outlet. If everything is OK, go... -

Ford 641 carb
Curious.. What are the idle and main jet sizes in both carbs? What are the carb intake and throttle opening sizes? As to the ignition coil, why not drop by the auto recycler and pull a coil with wiring connector from either a Ford Ranger 2.9L, or a 89-95 Taurus 3.0L. They are both epoxy coils... -

I don't own my tractor?
IMO you are worried about something that does not need concern you other than getting the laws corrected. If your tractor is on your property and you decide to repair it, how can the manufacturer ever know? IF the tractor has a wireless communication link to the manufacturer, that could most... -

Ford 600 weak spark
fwiw.. all contact points corrode slightly and sometimes need cleaning, especially when the engine has not been started and run long enough to remove the corrosion. There are several ways to remove the corrosion: 1.. SnapOn sells 'point files' which are plastic strips with a very light abrasive...
