    PTO revision?

    Is there any "rule of thumb" as concerns the distance of the end of the PTO shaft to the end of the grooved shaft on the 8n? Do I need to cut the shaft so the PTO is just able to slip on or should I allow myself an inch or two so that I can easily slide the PTO on after hooking up the hinch...

    Farmall 100 starter problem?

    I have a 1955 Farmall 100 that use to run just fine. Lately it doesn't run at all because it won't start. I pull on the starter rod and it turns over exactly once around and then goes dead. It won't do anything after trying to start it again. I then take off the battery cables and clean them...

    8n woes Help!!

    No grandsons yet. Maybe I could borrow one. The bottom of the housing seems to be "gooey" with grease/oil.. with the magnet I bring up lots of very tiny metal shavings mixed in the grease. my fear is the wrench gets (or already is) adhered to the flywheel and then it becomes a shooting gallery!
