    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    For the ignition coil on these tractors does it have 2 wires that are supposed to go to it? One for a starting voltage boost and then another with an inline resistor? I have two wires going to mine and they have very different ohm readings between the two, they terminate in the same pin on the...

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    I looked in there with one I had earlier, that’s how i identified the vertical scratches but it doesn’t have the greatest video quality out there, but I can probably get some pictures tomorrow if anything

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    Makes sense then, unless when the engine is accelerating it’s twisting the shaft to the side that’s the only time I could see the bushing causing issues with spark

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    I’m guessing the only time it would likely have an effect is if there was a major change in air gap then within the distributor due to the worn bushing. I’m guessing the damage in cylinder 2 is probably due to built up carbon coming loose and getting stuck under the rings, but I’m not for sure...

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    Apologies for them running together but it was 2 separate parts, one was in relation to the poor compression in cylinder 2 and some noticeable vertical marking in the cylinder wall as well as some oil and maybe some carbon that’s worked down the walls. The play in the ignition was in relation to...

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    That’s kind of what I was figuring it looks like there may be some vertical marking of the cylinder wall so it may need gone through on that cylinder, and since it’s one that runs on the Electronic ignition is that any different for movement compared to points and condenser?

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    So I decided to do a compression test and found that cylinder 2 is down 30-40 from 3 and 1 respectively, what’s the minimum compression these engines need to have? Could the compression be remixed via a valve adjust or is it pretty much needing a tear down to further inspect other than via borescope

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    I did find a little play from left to right of tractor in distributor shaft but none front to back can those electronic ignitions go bad over time?

    Sounds good, appreciate the help!

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    All good, figured it’d be worth an ask before I sat and cranked on it, but I’ll definitely check that strainer.

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    Also here’s the inside of my distributor

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    Sounds good, so I just need a 12v 3ohm coil then?

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    Are there any common area to check for cracks? I sprayed the intake down with carb cleaner with the engine about half throttle to see if it would pull any in and act up and had no luck but I very well could’ve missed something

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    My tank is clear, just rechecked it last night, and I’ll do a flow test, I’m assuming this test will be with me just cranking the engine?

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    I ohm’d the coil less than a minute after shutting down and it was at 3.7-3.8, is there any other way to check for a bad coil other than replacing

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    The coil was warm but you could still comfortably hold it even when running, idk if this one has a condenser, it doesn’t look to have points either, I can let it sit and pull the cap and with some heat still in the engine start it and it will still stutter so I don’t believe it is a venting...

    Ford 4000 poor running when warm

    I have a ford 4000 with the 3 cylinder gas engine, it runs great when it’s cool but once you worked it for a bit 15-20 minutes and thoroughly warmed the engine it will stutter severely and stall when you try rev the engine up, if you play with the throttle it’ll catch and go and once you’ve done...
