You are slipping.Only won 1 out of 4 tractors we bid on.
I've heard of it, but I don't think I am doing it right unless the 12 steps are all buying a tractor and then you repeat.You do know there is a 12 step program for what you've got, don't you?
This picture takers head is always a little off angle and also GoPro cameras can distort things a bit. Both rears are 7.50-22 but different brands. The one side is flat and completely shot. The engine is a Hercules NXB with the bolt on bell housing. The later Deere engine was a one-piece casting. If this engine will run I may put it in my 1938 Unstyled L for now, as long as everything fits, while I put the original back together. The '38 had the Hercules NXA engine which is a 3" bore and the NXB had a 3.25" bore. The LA tractors grew to 3.5" bore but all of them had a 4" stroke.Looks like 2 different sized tires on the rear or is it the angle of the picture or maybe the picture taker had his head at an angle?? Is that a JD engine or a Hercules, that will keep you busy for a few days
Maybe a pieceof rust or carbon under the valvesPlayed around with the L some today. Need to check the valves because its not sucking thru the carb like it should when I crank it over.
It would be nice if that's all it is. I think I will pull the side cover and see if they are all moving/closing. May have to pull the head to see what's up.Maybe a piece of rust or carbon under the valves
If my son saw me place and engine back into the frame without cleanup and new paint, he would of jumped on it to get it right. He would of even taken the fan off, cleaned it really good and put 2 coats of black to it.Got the engine set back in the frame. Found some round rod and bent up a hand crank. Just need to drill for the cross pin.
