    I've tried all I know

    Update. I found the problem. When i went to set the static timing i noticed that i couldnt get the diz to turn far enough to read through with my meter, per Bruce's instuction. So i took the bolt that holds it down out and twisted back and forth thinking it was gunked up. Turns out that the bolt...

    I've tried all I know

    Ty everyone. Lots of stuff to do today, Bruce im gonna start with getting my timing back in order. Thought i would post before i go out to work and clear a few things up. Flow to the carb is good. 2 turns open, gas cap on, it drained the entire tank which had about 7 gal with a steady stream...

    I've tried all I know

    Hey everyone, I need some help. I have a sick '51 8N sidemount with a Zenith carb. About a month ago we were working in the garden when all of a sudden the tractor started stuttering. Just for a few seconds and then everything cleared back up and it was back to normal. I didn't think much of...

    Vertical Mill

    Wow, you guys have given me a lot of good uses for my new toy. I do need a drill press, and that will probably be its main function at least for a while. Yes it is very dirty, everything here is very dirty. I'm not sure why we even have it. I got it from a silent auction at work, and I don't...

    Vertical Mill

    I have an 850 actually. Is that to add remotes?

    Vertical Mill

    This is it. Index model 645. As far as I know it works. I don't think it has been used in a while.

    Vertical Mill

    Hey guys. Alright, I know this sounds bad, but I just bought a vertical milling machine and now I'm wondering if I have a use for it. I know what it does, but I'm not sure what I would use it for. Its an Index 645. I'm thinking I will probably just sell it but thought I would post here first...

    Fuel and Oil lines

    Thanks to everyone who replied. I will pick up the tools the next time I get a chance. The fuel line on my N has some rubber sections put together with hose clamps and I just don't like it. I don't think it poses any major safety hazards as long as it stays where its at. The tube coming off...

    Fuel and Oil lines

    I need to redo the fuel and oil lines on my 8N and the fuel line on my 850. I know that I have seen before people talking about using brake line. If anyone knows of a thread where this has already been explained in detail please post a link. Questions: Is there any advantage or disadvantage...

    Small Farm Questions

    Dean, I would love rotate all that with the critters as said. Problem is the property is restricted and I can't have any split hooved animals on it. I have another 10.5ac behind that with no restrictions, but it's all wooded. Ecnerwal, yeah I didn't really consider that I was compacting...

    Small Farm Questions

    Thanks for the replies. I hadnt considered using my extra sweet corn as field corn. Ive never heard of anyone doing that but I guess it makes since for what I am trying to do. This year I bought way too much seed, so I probably have enough to do twice what i did this year in the freezer. I...

    Small Farm Questions

    I've been hanging out on the Ford boards for a while, and after reading a little decided I would post over here for some advice. I've been growing a small garden for a few years, with the last two focusing mainly on sweet corn. I have about 1.5ac that is cleared to work but have only been...

    Top Link

    I'm sure this is not what you're looking for being a trailer queen, but I just use a piece of small rope tied in a loop. My top link is the turn buckle style, I just angle it up and slide the loop up and hook it over the rod that goes through the center. The loop is small enough that it just...

    O/T: Winchester Model 94

    I agree with oldtanker. No matter what I was going to do with the rifle I would make some type of an effort to make it look nice. The good news is since it has already been refinished its like a free play. You can't really mess it up. If something doesn't turn out right you can just strip it...
