    Carb issues

    I checked the firing order, it's ok. I'm going to tackle adjusting the carb tomorrow. Don't know how critical the relief valve spring is, the choke isn't really on all the time anyway. Got several printouts on how to adjust, so, tomorrow is another learning opportunity.

    Carb issues

    Thank you for the insights, me thinkest I'm suffering from CRS as well. In any event, I bent the float to get it parallel and 1/4" gap and put the buggar back on the tractor. Tinkered around a bit and found that the fuel valve was clogged - so, drained the gas, removed the valve, cleaned it...

    Carb issues

    I've had issues with the carb on my ford 8n (sn 16899?) - replaced governor and had to run with choke on constantly to keep running. Took air intake off carb and gas came running out. I took off the carb, removed the halves and have a couple questions: 1. The choke relief valve is supposed to...

    What carb do I have?

    I scraped off the brass plate some more and can see a TS at the top and a 3 on the bottom.

    What carb do I have?

    A photo of the other side. Looks like a 4 stamped on the brass plate.

    What carb do I have?

    Been heavily using choke to try to get it started. Tractor still won't start and now gas coming out of the air intake. I'm in a quandry, since I split the carb apart to look at the float I'm thinking I should get a replacement gasket set. I guess the main gaskets are pretty much the same...

    What carb do I have?

    I've got a Marvel-Schebler with a 16 B stamped on the side - I can't discern any TSX___ stamping on this carb. I've got gas coming out of the air intake, so, am looking for repair parts, but, don't know which model Marvel-Schebler I've got. Any help would be appreciated.

    318 with no hydraulics

    No adjustments were made on the hydraulics, they just stopped working. Don't know about the diverter valve, help me to find out where it would be located. This is a stock John Deere, no mods have been made to it.

    318 with no hydraulics

    My jd model 318 suddenly won"t raise or lower the deck. The wheels turn great, but not uppy or downy with the deck. The tranny sightglass is full, unless i"m on an incline, in which case it"s not so full. It seems that the past few times it did operate properly the hydraulic lever had to be...

    1949 Ford 8n throttle problems

    Ok, a newbie question, but, see that bolt under the spring, sandwiched between two plates? It's part of the throttle linkage. What does that bolt do? I'm noticing that my throttle linkage slips a bit. IE: when you turn up the throttle the lever turns but starts to slip a bit. I'm wondering...

    Can I use this governor

    Just got a replacement governor for my 1949 8n and may appear to have the wrong governor. My old governor did not have the proofmeter, the new one does. Can I use the new governor since I will not be hooking up a proofmeter anyway? There is a cap where the cable should go, so, hopefully it'll...

    Can I use this governor

    Thank you for the input. I was mainly concerned if there was any mechanical reason I couldn't use the governor: different size gears, shaft, bearings, throttle connectors, etc. If it's the same governor except the option for proofmeter linkage, then I will just use the new one.
