    No response on the Allis board, I'll try here: Rear crank seal on Allis C

    Getting ready to order parts here and wondering about the rear main seal. The basic engine rebuild kit is not too clear about inclusion of front and rear main seals (they don't appear to be included in complete gasket sets). There appears to be a felt or cork seal for the rear. I"ve done the...

    FMJ magneto with no marking on the gear

    Cleaning up a FMJ mag on a C. The small steel gear in the mag has one tooth with a small portion of one tooth ground off I assume that to be the marking. The fiber gear in the cap has no marking of any kind and I've looked it over pretty well. The mag will throw a nice hot spark to a plug off...

    1999 F250 fuel pump replacement???

    Had to have it hauled home on a flatbed as it cranked like crazy but no fire. Rather than towing it to a shop I opted to roll the dice on a local mobile mechanic on fbook mktplace. He came and diagnosed it as fuel pump and swapped a relay no help. Told me to buy a fuel pump and we set a date...

    These brass shims in the bottom end of Allis C?

    The last time I was into an Allis C engine was well over 15 years ago. This tractor leaked so much oil out of the front seal it ruined the front tires. The rear leaked so much oil when I started using the tractor in the spring it was almost like an automatic with a torque converter there was so...

    Allis C ??? Sleeves were a breeze, how tough are valve guides?????

    I've got a couple heads to choose from one has nice guides and nasty seats one has worn guides and seats just need a dusting. How hard to remove and replace seats? I grew up poor and always did my own VW heads, tap the guide and insert a set screw and hammer out the old one. I had a stepped...

    Sleeves on an Allis C

    I just bought an Allis C for $250, the engine was partially disassembled. I'm contemplating a complete rebuild. The engine looked like it got water down the exhaust and might have been locked up. There is scoring in some of the cylinders and the guy who took it apart did manage to break the ring...

    Taperlock hubs/sheaves on Woods belly mower deck

    Took advantage of the nice weather here in NE Indiana to replace some spindles in a Woods L306 belly mower on my new(er) 75 year old Allis C. I stripped down a spare deck I had laying around and for the most part the taperlock hubs separated like they should. These hub have a 3/4" shaft and use...

    Rim Centric /Ring Centric for rim center holes

    I have snow tires on steel rims on my Honda Accord and the starter was beginning to show warning signs of failure ahead. With the impending snow storm I was forced to put the snow tires with Honda rims on the Camry (same bolt pattern). The center hole on the Honda rims is slightly larger than...

    Mounting new radiator on a C what to use for rubber cushion?

    I'm mounting a new radiator on a Model C. I've cut an old inner tube and put holes for the mounting bolts in it to use as a cushion at the bottom. The inner tube is about .055" thick. Is one layer adequate or double up and use two pieces?

    F250 Triton 5.4 slight miss: UPDATE

    Two months ago I had my 1999 F250 in the shop for a slight miss. The mechanic report showed 3560 misfires on #3 ignition coil. I was told it showed signs of corrosion but did not see the old parts. the bill was $161 which seemed pretty reasonable to me at the time. Labor was $100, coil was $50...

    A simple fan belt on a Model C, really?????

    The new C I brought home last week, tin off the front and radiator removed for other work-------might as well put on a new fan belt while I have access. I had to yank like heck to get it off between the crank pulley and frame. I welded a T on the end of a long bolt to use as a crank and...

    I'd like a few more RPM on the Allis C I just brought home

    Just brought home a 1949 Allis C with Woods L306 mower deck. This one is replacing one I've owned and abused for 25+ years. Compression is #1 110psi, #2 105psi, #3 110psi, #4 115psi. Today I removed the radiator to repair, also valve cover to adj valves. The valve train looks pretty clean...

    ALLIS Model C ignition systems

    The Allis C I've owned for about 30 years now has a non-magneto ignition with a distributor mounted horizontal. If my memory is correct it seems like when I purchased cap rotor points etc. the parts were actually for an IH tractor (it's been a really long time). This particular distributor has a...

    163cc OHV Briggs: Update

    I've had it running and actually mowed with it several times. Fuel supply is clean, tank clean, carb cleaned twice, choke NOT sticking open. This is one of the strangest running small engines I've ever experienced. I've been running it with the cover off so I can see what the carb linkages are...

    163cc OHV Briggs

    Well I opened my mouth at a garage sale last week and brought home what appears to be a pretty nice Toro Personal Pace mower. The note on the mower said "Needs new engine Make Offer". When I asked about it the lady said someone put on a new carb and told her it will need the engine replaced. She...

    F250 5.4 Triton slight miss under load

    I have a 1999 F250 Super Duty 5-speed stick with a 5.4 Triton with 125K miles. Last year I replaced the fuel pump relay. I don't drive this truck very often so the gas may be a bit on the old side, today I managed to siphon most of the gas out of the tank (29 gal). The plan is to add about 10...

    Ever buy tires off ebay?

    I need some trailer tires 225 75 15 and see some on eBay for a pretty decent price. They are Summit brand and the seller is Simple Tire. I barely even use the trailer and never approach the weight limit on the trailer-----the old tires have simply aged out.

    Any knowledge regarding Wheel Horse D-180 welcome

    A D-180 Wheel Horse is coming up for auction locally with a 56” mower deck and 56” front blade. I might be moderately interested in purchasing. I believe it has a 2-cyl kohler engine (K series?). How good is this model? Parts difficult to find?

    DC sparky question; need to reverse rotation on Autolite MZ starter

    I asked about parts for this starter last month decided to just take it to a repair shop and have brushes installed. It is a starter motor that is bolted directly to a hydraulic pump (gear type) on a hydraulic lift. When I got it back it runs fine but with the wrong direction of rotation. When I...
