Re: Messing around in the shop

Just as an idiot check, 'cause I've been there... You did open the fuel valve out of the tank again right? Have enough fuel that it ins't in to the "reserve" portion of the tank that requires opening the valve all the way? The N, and the MF 202 are the only things we shut off the fuel valv...

Re: Messing around in the shop

If you haven't run across this before, give it a read. Lots of good stuff in there for the N's. https://forums.yesterdaystractors.com/pages/artint268/ I wish I could tell you what plugs are in my N. They've been in there forever now, and keep going. I'll see if we noted it in the maintenance log. (I...

Re: Farm run about car

It's probably a comfortable little farm vehicle. It's also probably a little more complicated than I'd want for that application, but if it's working for them, then great. Also likely far less expensive than a lot of the side by sides out there now, and not much different in size.

Re: Cutting clear acrylic (plexiglass) sheets

If you do any kind of renovation, an oscillating tool is one of the most helpful things you could imagine. You can obviously cut all kinds of things with them, but they really, truly shine doing things like plunge cuts in wood that you can't do any other way. I lived for ages without one until the p...

Re: Hydraulic hookup for small backhoe

I found an SK008 that looks like it's their smallest model, and seems about right (honestly, it looks a little bigger in the photos, but close). Cut sheet says it has gear pump for the main system, and variable displacement pumps for the travel. Pressure on that machine was 2600psi. Doesn't list the...

Re: Hydraulic hookup for small backhoe

Couple things to check... Can you find out what the operating pressure, and pump flow was on the donor machine? Is the valve stack you have on there able to handle the back pressure, or is it going straight back to the tank? I run my 646 basically at idle, or just above for the D100. The cylinders o...

Re: Pictures: this moment

I've read plenty of success storyies useing the UTF, with the note that wear can cause either lack of pressure, or fast drop. Other than that I can't imagine any other issue. I can't change over due to my uncle who is the co-owner. He's absolutly set on not changing it. Of course he leaves for Flori...

Re: Pictures: this moment

This batch of parts are for the 2N Ford to see if I can get it to start easier in cold weather. I’d really like to use it and the 446 for winter duty instead of having to get my Case 830 out. The 830 does a good job but it’s big and heavy. I got it stuck one winter and had a bear of a time getting ...

Re: Robber edge for snow blades

My father ran UHMW blocks for skids on the JD140 to avoid scratching his then new pavers. Took the chains off too, but that's another issue... The blocks did ok, but over time they ground down far more quickly than the steel feet would. I went back to the steel as soon as I could. I could see using ...

Re: 7020 coil replacement and info

I really should have gone with that style when I built mine. The vertical travel makes more snese than the arc mine moves through.
