    Water in hydraulic system CASE VAC

    The kerosene just helped flush all the crud from the bottom . I’m done with it I hope. The seafoam sounds like a good idea though. Would you think that the filter is behind a plate with hydraulic lines coming out of it or one that’s blank? I assumed the blank one was for a belt pulley. Also I...

    Water in hydraulic system CASE VAC

    Thank you for all your replies!!! I appreciate your help, my father and I restored a few tractors in my childhood but he’s no longer here to consult with. Would hy Tran be okay from Walmart?? They have a 2 gallon jug reasonably priced. It actually calls for 20 weight oil but good luck finding...

    Water in hydraulic system CASE VAC

    I recently acquired a 1949 Case VAC. The tractor starts easily with even a hand crank and carries good oil pressure. It is another family heirloom so I really want to do this right and began changing all the fluids. The tractor was parked outside for most of its life and there was water in the...

    1941 Farmall H inheritance

    Honestly there’s nothing there to get a bite on my thought was since the parts tractor is rough just take its oil pan. The petcocks are bad on both tractors and the parts oil pan is dented but with a block of wood and my anvil I’m sure it will beat out.

    So I tried a few things today on my new H -The oil I cannot drain because some genius in the tractors past rounded off the corners of the pipe plug and it’s so stuck that a pipe wrench won’t budge it. I looked at the pan on the parts tractor and it’s very dented but might beat out... -there is...

    Gas was mostly drained as was the coolant. I’m positive that one bolt is there the other broken off and the front of the bracket was welded. My moms family was VERY poor having a lot of mouths to feed and tragedies leaving her and her brothers and sister to be raised by their grandparents so...

    Do I need a ballast resistor for the coil that as I understand it is in the magneto?

    1941 Farmall H inheritance

    My problem with most of the kits is they include brackets and not reuse original mine is welded to the head . I’m thinking someone in the past snapped off a stud and did the most expedient repair.... if there a alternator that can be used with original brackets would solve many problems . I’m...

    Thank you I wasn’t sure about the magneto situation honestly. Can I hook up a battery that’s 12 volt and try to start without any charging system hooked up? I’m not really sure how to do it and it turns over by hand. The parts tractor is seized but the one I’m fixing is loose . Thanks again

    I finally got to take my late Uncles H Farmall home from his place the tractor hasn’t ran in 30 plus years but I do remember being a youngster on his lap “driving “ . Thankfully it’s been stored inside and was his someday project having been in our family since new. He started the 12 volt...
