    8N Industrial Engine

    My dad rebuilt our 8n with NO sleeves and '40 Merc pistons in 1958. It worked great for about a year then lost power and started burning oil again. The mechanics of the day in ower area didn't think the cast used in the block was high enough quality to run a piston in. Was the ford industrial...

    Bad mix?

    Ford recommended adding 1-qt of kerosene to 30wt engine oil for easier winter starting. Ford may have a better Idea but that is not one of them. Kerosene will wash your connecting rod bearings out then you will have to do a rebuild like what happened to me. Talked to an old time mechanic after...

    Honesty

    Don't feel bad; I called a used car dealer one time on a VW diesel I set a time for a test drive, when I showed up it was running ready to go. I took it up the road to find it was missing on one. When I came back I pointed it out to the dealer. He acted dumb said he didn't know. This was cold...

    2N Crankcase Drain Nut Stuck

    Hit it a bang or to with your hammer, that may help to loosen it up. Use the wrench that fits it properly if it is already chewed up use a pipe wrench. Cheers Eldon

    OT: Horse slipped and fell

    Give the horse a good going over with your hand like you were rubbing him down with liniment or rub the area down with horse liniment (hip leg and ankle.) When you find the sore spot (you will know by his actions) it should give you an idea of the severity of the injury. If he pulled a tendon it...

    OT Bosch Platinum +4 spark plugs

    A high tension spark will only jump from point a to point b or from the point of least resistance You can't maintain 2, 3, or 4 points of the same resistance as in the case of these multy ground plugs. If this would work you wouldn't need dual ignition on an aircraft engine, just use a set of...

    wont start

    Is it realy dicharging or do you have your new amp meter hooked up backwards. Do a voltage check with a voltmeter on the battery with engine off then with engine running if you see a voltage increase with engine running reverse the wires on the ampmeter. Cheers ebooth

    back blade

    I would have to agree with DJ. A front blade set up works a lot better (I have had both) all though a front blade is harder to come by. It is also a lot easier on the neck. Don’t get a blade bigger than you can handle. I have a 5Ft. blade and I have no problem pushing it in 3 Rd. gear with it...

    Convert 9N to 12V negative

    Also if you have a 12 volt battery on a 6 volt system your coil may be braking down or you could be causing damage to other parts of the system.

    Convert 9N to 12V negative

    I have an 8n with front dis. original 6 volt system. I would agree to leaving your system 6 volt and finding the problem. If your tractor starts and idles fine but misses when it tries to pull its self does pulling the choke out at this time help? If yes then you may have a fuel problem. If no I...

    8 n handcranks

    I had an IHC 1020 and a McCormick F12 They both had Mags. Mags have what they call an impulse. This impulse makes the mag have the same fire power at 1 RPM as it would at 1200 RPM. They also had a retard and advance lever. You retard the spark to crank the tractor or it may kick and hurt you...
