I m new on here but not new to the 8N. I had an 1952 back into early nineties and remember some of it but not everything. I planned on leaving a message on here to comment about the good parts and shipping but I have an actual problem now. This tractor needs a number of small things fixed but starts good and runs decent
Today I went out to start it and the starter drive locked up. Of course it was making a terrible noise as it tried to spin at 5,000 rpm so I shut it off right away I tried it one more time but its stuck. I then pulled it with my truck and tried to bump spin it a little but no good. I tried to remove the starter but there isn t enough clearance with the drive engaged. I did search the forum but didn’t hit on this problem. I remember the issue of having to spin the drive with a wire wheel or something years ago. I hope this isn t split it time lol
Thanks for any help
