    Brazing Nut onto Stripped Farmall 140 Steering Box Mounting Hole

    Yes and they can be stronger but do need a larger amount of material around damaged hole due to the larger outside diameter. For the Helicoil type repair kits: Not knowing the size of the bolt that the hole needs repairs for hard to know what kit would be needed but looks like 3/8 or 1/2 inch...

    Farmall A/B what year is it ?

    How about assembling a tractor with two left side A axle/housing assemblies with the B front end? If I had access to the parts I'd do it just to take a picture for YouTube!

    Gasket Dressing

    Well if any of the gaskets are rubber/neoprene I would not use High Tack. One time a guy at the shop used it on a valve cover gasket on a Mack engine. As soon as the engine warmed up the High Tack worked like grease and the gasket slide right out from under the cover and there was an oily mess...

    And Pawpaw, one thing I do is after reading the forums I always click on the "Mark Forums Read" up near the top that works for me but others might do it different!

    Adding a Water Pump to C123 Engine

    All I can say is running an engine too cool can be detrimental in many ways.

    Adding a Water Pump to C123 Engine

    And it could be that some of the old posts surfacing again after being dead for a couple years is because someone new joins the forum and sees something that relates to a problem they are having.

    Adding a Water Pump to C123 Engine

    Well something like 25 years or more back I rebuilt my 1947 BN. The head gasket that I got from Tractor Supply had the smaller holes. Not sure why I failed to notice. Problem was after using for a short time started having a little moisture/coolant in oil. After some research found that there...

    Super A Oil Pressure

    When I last had the oil pan off my BN I actually assembled my pump with no gasket. I did use a thin coat of gasket maker, for get the exact brand, but not silicon stuff. I waited 24 hours before installing pump to be able to be sure that the pump still turned free. This was something like 25+...

    Super A Oil Pressure

    I would not be to fast to say that, my BN is only 76 years old so I'll give it a bit more time before I decide if the lack of cam bearings is going to be a problem. I run straight 40 weight oil and mostly only run it for mowing so that seems to work. Pressure reading on the, I believe...

    Stuck B

    Just a quick look on this site for complete overhaul kit plus new mains and rod bearings come to something like $813 to a bit more if you need undersize bearings. Sure if you need to have crank ground or head needs major work that will raise the price. Then again if head is bad they offer a...

    Stuck B

    At this point I think I would bite the bullet as they say and just split the tractor and keep pulling things apart on the engine till I found what was causing the problem. I mean it's not a 16-71 Detroit or 3412 Cat engine, just a little four banger Farmall. Only thing simpler would be a...

    Bushhog with Farmall B

    My BN handles a 6 foot/72 inch Woods mower pretty good. But then I do mow the approx. five acres around every other week. Not sure how fast the grass/weeds in the original posters field grow. Then again when I rebuilt my BN 20 plus years back I did go for the big bore kits so that might be...

    C135 pistons

    Not familiar with the C135 but a quick google search shows what a re claimed to be C135 block and they all appear to have sleeves. Is it possible there were two different versions of the C135, like a light duty version with sleeveless block and another for heavy duty use with sleeves...

    Easy Off Oven cleaner

    Ahhhhhhhhhhh! I don't think the reference to "orange juice" was a recommendation but more of a dig at WD-40! Now if you mix the orange juice with vodka it might help in other ways, but put tools away and find a comfy chair before imbibing.

    woods mower identification

    Not sure if this question was aimed at me but my best answer would be: "Probably". As I did follow Woods directions when I installed it, but that was many moons ago! To be totally honest the deck has been abused a bit by poor operator(me) getting too close to trees and other obstacles in the...

    woods mower identification

    I've run a Woods L306, which is a 72 inch mower on my BN for well over 35 years. I mow around 5 acres of lawn with it. Don't let it get too tall, maybe six inches, before mowing most of the time.
