There is no name on the...

    Magneto question

    I've hand cranked battery ignition tractors plenty. If the battery is too low to crank the engine but enough to power the spark. There's no need for the impulse to make a strong spark on a distributor. The battery provides plenty of hot spark at a low RPM. The magneto needs the boost of RPM from...

    Magneto question

    You wouldn't really need a 35 degree unless you're running kerosene or diesel. I'm pretty sure there are long lug distributors but I've never actually looked

    Detroit Harvester Street Sweepers

    Does anyone have a 30s/40s era Detroit Harvester Street Sweeper? I have a guy looking to rebuild one on a 1930s Deere and he'd like any details. I'd love pictures, literature, anything. I suspect most of it was interchangable between brands. I'd love a parts book haha Thanks, Brandon

    Questions about the John Deere 801 style hitch.

    Just using a long pin between the links and implement top link works great. I've tried adding a conventional top link ball to the JD crossbar. It does work, but I've found it to be too long a time or two and ditched it for the long pin arrangement Brandon

    Convert 3rd brush gen to regulator

    What does it take to convert a 3rd brush gen to a fully regulated gen? This would be a Delco Remy generator. All I can think is move the brush to full output, but then would you just wire the regulator as normal? I haven't compared the terminals on the different generators but I thought they...

    John deere M multiple paint layers

    I am a bit of an industrial nut so I might be able to help and I know a few M guys that are VERY good. The MI wasn't made until 1950 and the M started in 47, so if a customer wanted a different color M that would have been their only option. I've seen orange and yellow Ms I'd love to see more...

    Tractor accessory grounding with wires

    I'll be wiring a tractor, eventually. Simple, 6 volt, positive ground. Just generator and lights. It would normally rely on chassis grounds, light housing to light bracket, to radiator, to engine, then to transmission. Especially since a lot of stuff has been painted I'm debating running...
