    The "carb. shack" is closing up....for awhile

    Gary, I can"t say enough how you have helped me... if it wouldn"t have been for you, i"d still have a rebuilt but non-running 8n in the garage! Take care of yourself and please don"t hesitate to let me know if you ever need anything. I don"t watch the forums that much anymore (Not enough...

    Side Mount Advanced Timing

    Jerry, This makes perfect sense now. I did tear apart the distributor and am currently rebuilding it (the bushing in the bottom was shot and this wasn't helping the points gap or how it ran). When i go to retime it i will make sure i do the math. Thanks for the heads up! Tyler

    Side Mount Advanced Timing

    Dell, If you check your your manual there is a chart for the timing advance. I know and understand that the timing advances when the RPM speeds up... this is caused from the cam and weights in the distributor. I also know it isn't a linear relationship. The problem is, going by the chart in...

    Side Mount Advanced Timing

    So as some of you know i have been working to get my freshly rebuild 8n up to par for a few weeks now on and off. It runs but hasn't run quiet right and lacks power. Also she can be corrected and runs smoother with the choke slightly pulled out. Regardless i don't have a timing light so my...

    Anyone want to check out my carb?

    I am kinda done fartin around with the carb on the 8n on my own and would like a little piece of mind to have someone else look at it and help get it fixed RIGHT. I know i need packing put in around the shaft and possibly put bushings in it. I would really be great if it could be put on...

    Carb got me so mad...

    I honestly would just like to send my carb to one of you guys to check it out. I know it will need new packing put in at the throttle shaft and choke shaft and could need new throttle bushings. Would someone be able to please help? This seems to be what i'm missing to get this tractor...

    Carb got me so mad...

    Firing Order is correct... 1,2,4,3 CCW. I am guessing it is more likely the leakage problem if anything. The rebuild kits are sorta cheap and dont' come with a good seal for around the throttle shaft. The kit i used just has a real cheap small rubber boot that doesn't seem to be a real good...

    Carb got me so mad...

    Last week i posted a message asking for some help with my original MS carb on my 52 8N. The tractor was completely rebuilt and the motor has been broke in but i can't seem to get it tuned right. I did tear down and rebuild the carb and then tore it apart again over the weekend, soaked it in...

    Carb help

    I think i may have everyone confused on the screw / sand plug part... i think i was confused myself so i thought i would share it. I am actually just talking about the smaller drain plug located opposite the main drain plug. Someone must have lost this at one time and just jammed a longer pan...

    Carb help

    Wow, this is a great document. I'm quite certain if i take it back appart and use the phone line wire trick it should clear it out quite nicely. In response to JMOR, i do have great feul flow through the drain plug in the bottom of the carb, not just to the inlet. The one noticably different...

    Carb help

    I recently rebuild the motor / front end on a 1952 8n. This actually was my first ever rebuild project and it went fairly smoothly. The motor and paint are finished and i just fired it up for the first time since the rebuild a couple of night ago. Great oil pressure, etc etc and she purrs...
