LETS GO BABY. Honestly it was a truly amazing experience and so thankful to have had a small part in it. LETS GO
It was awesome
You guys are awesome 👌
Funny stuff 😂
Why did they cut out All the Video ??
@@glenjenkins920 what do you mean
Hank: Test Compression with all plugs removed, Throttle wide open. If bad result try wet test. (squert of engine oil in each cylinder) if still bad result, check valves are not sticking open. Re lap valves and start all over again
Need a proper valve job and set over size rings
Hank you say you ain't no mechanic but look like your doing pretty good
We still have a 1950s 8n that we still use around the farm just love the little tractor
My dad has one too
I've heard you folks say things like "well we aren't mechanics" and as a mechanic, you highly overestimate how capable or trained us mechanics are.
You most certainly are a mechanic. ❤
Good job to all that worked on this tractor It was nice to see all the smiles!
My grandfather's 1952 8n sat for close to 15 years, I fired it up in 2023, it's still running like a top, only problem I really had was the clutch stuck and it was a devil getting it unstuck!
So cool
Those old 9N, 8N & 2N are super easy & Cheap to restore, i did an 8N & rebuilt the engine, crank rods pistons & all gaskets & 12V conversion & paint..everything for less than $1000, luckily the tires were like new, the tires are the most expensive part of those. & tractor supply carries almost anything for them, i bought my new steering wheel there.
The hood is the most expensive individual part on The Steiner website lol
I think my eyes are sweating. Yeah that’s what it is. If that had been my dad’s tractor, I’d have been weeping getting to drive it.
Brother it wasn't ours and I was a bit emotional. Every son wants to ride his dad's tractor.
My brother-in-law has a 1939 Ford Ferguson N-9 and still works it on his farm. Every year at the County fair he wins first place for the oldest still working tractor.
This is great Hank! Worth the wait!! Love the old Fords! Edit… So cool bringing it back to let him drive his dad’s tractor. You could tell that meant a lot to him.❤
Heck yeah
I remember when my Grandpa used to let me drive his tractor like this one when I was a kid.
That's so cool
FANTASTIC!! 😊👍 So awesome what ya'll do! Thanks for sharing, Hank!
Thanks brother it was a blast.
Great job hank the previous owner must be smiling in HEAVEN...
It was ded an awesome time.
My family had one of these when I was in high school. It was the easiest thing to work on I ever saw. We did an overhaul on the engine without removing it in one day. New sleeves,pistons, rings, bearings and valve job. It didn’t need a clutch so we didn’t have to separate the back half of the tractor.
Love your channel guys, I put a 12k pound Harbor Freight winch on my trailer to load dead toys, makes life so much easier
If I know anything I would say that I is a 8N
To do a proper compression test you need to remove all of the sparkplug and hold the throttle wide open
Good One Hank
Very nice job and God bless y'all and so nice for you to let him drive it
Was really a sweet moment.
I add two cycle oil to gas to first start up and let it run thru a couple of gallons just to lube it up good 👍
That old girl will run wait and see
Got my grandpa's 1948 8N that we restored together 15 years ago. It started my addiction with tractors. Love seeing you work on this old Ford!
That's super cool
Get an Inline spark tester for ignition wires; cheap and easy to see if sparking. Both of you fellas struck out on compression.
There's 2 bolts in the bottom of the radiator the bull to chew took loose. Hold stuff pin for the front axle. You don't wanna take that one out unless you're gonna remove the front Axel
I like y'all's videos helps me get threw my dailies really in joy them thinks from gary
That just brings a smile on your face
Right exactly what we thought.
Its heart warming to see everyone come together ,we need more of that ❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂
Heck yeah it was a blast. Glad to be a small part of it.
I am currently in the process of restoring a 1950 Ford 8n myself. Just finished up the paint work on the sheet metal hood. Paid about $1500 for the tractor & brush hog! It's been a pretty good little tractor.
That’s a great deal and worth it for sure
Hank, Matt@Diesel Creek would be so proud of you for bringing this rusty iron back to life.
our family farm had, Ferguson. And two Oliver's
Good Afternoon Hank and good luck with your project today ! 😊
❤How sweet was that❤
What an awesome video to watch on a quiet Sunday afternoon. Han=nk you did good and I am now a fan fo JMR Rebuilders. Great job One & All
I've been waiting and waiting to see this one. I was yelling at my computer for them not changing the oil pan and putting the clean one on, but who knows they might have done it and not filmed it.
Have fun with that Hank , and remember to drive it from time to time.
We wish we had. So glad you enjoyed it
Love the sound of the start 😊
My Dad passed away in 2003 and his 1949 8N sat in the tractor shed until july of 2021 when I started a complete rebuild on the engine. I also replaced the clutch and radiator. It took a little over a year to complete due to interuptions and on October 11 of 2022, the tractor was started for the first time in nineteen years. I kept the original 6 volt charging system. I still have a lot to restore on it. That single bolt under the radiator holds the front axle support pin to the radiator support. 11/16, 3/4, and 9/16 will get most of the fasteners off.
At least seat your valves with grinding compound and I would have honed the cylinders and installed new rings ! Head gasket of course. I am 82 years old, rebuilt many tractors and engines in Nebraska and have worked as a mechanic on everything including aircraft. Good luck with your project.
8n fords are always a pleasure to work with. Easy as pie to fix. You can get a replacement square coil that goes on the top of the distributor in 12 volt, odds are the one on there is a 6 volt. The round one is not a factory coil. I’d also recommend a single wire delco alternator. Easy to install and wire. Also another bit of advice is to use brass nuts if you can find them on the manifold, it makes future removal easier as they don’t rust to the studs.
Saving the old iron, very interesting 🤔. Really enjoyed the content guys. Thanks for sharing.
Hank...how did you not know to take the head off and check for stuck valves? It's a flathead engine! After sitting for many years, the most common issue is stuck valves. It probably would've fired up if you'd unstuck the valves. But getting those Georgia boys to work on it made an entertaining video.
Great job Guys !!!
Great job guys.
That is an iconic tractor!! My dad had one and I loved it!!
Heck yeah love it.
The best thing is to pull the starter so you can get on the ring gear
Permatex makes a sealer for cracks in cast iron and it works well. Nice new toy, have fun.
Congratulations Hank
Awesome video, Hank, and a really nice story behind this tractor. Appreciate you, buddy 👍
You bet!
Watching your work on this tractor is really awesome.
Hank that would make your wife a cute little garden tractor
Great stuff. Beautiful little tractor. Nice work. Looks like you’re having fun doing it up.
Was a blast
Growing up, I actually used our neighbor's *N on our farm. We had a 1955 600 bought new and in those days neighbors shared labor, tractors and such, so he used ours as well. We still have the old 600.
🎉😂 long... but pretty cool 😎 video 📸... thanks everyone for all the work you guys done 👍...... JJ...😊..
Thank you for watching we appreciate it
Love watching this project!
sitting in my armchair, my best guess is that the jammed distributor jumped a few teeth on the timing chain, making the valves open too late, dropping the compression right down
that engine should of run, badly, but it should of started with the good valves in...
[in UK, we are getting quite a few probs with diesel camshafts twisting, causing a similar fault]
keep it up young man...
Love your video's Hank good job on The 8N Ford Tractor 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
Thats a nice thing you all done.
It was a good time.
Hi Hank, I use an old Lawn mower Gas tank on my test stand. Works Great. and you don't have a lot of fuel inside your garage. You sure made the original owner happy. Thank you
Hi Hank, A simple way to turn over an engine is to jack up one rear wheel, put it into a low gear then turn the wheel that's off the ground. BTW I've always called the centre contact in the dist cap a carbon brush, mechanics might use a different term in your part of the world but that's what we call it in Australia. Love those old tractors, I've worked on plenty similar Massey Fergusons but never any of that vintage Ford, great machines.
Nice thanks for sharing 🎉🎉🎉🎉😅
Hank sir you are truly awesome and a blessing to everyone. I follow you and willy and this video brought me to tears. Reminds me of my childhood days in the farm. Thank you for your blessing and your videos
Enjoyed the video. Well done.
Awesome!!!…💪🏻💪🏻
Hank!! You played the camera GREAT buddy 😎🤣 and with the sad tunes too ✌️😎😎🤣🤣🤣🤣
I flippin love that part he did great there.
Thanks for the good content
8n had small rear hubs like this one. 9n and 2n's are much larger! Wish I would have kept my 8n👍
Great video, guys.
Everyone did an amazing job..
Thanks for sharing.
Get a old Murray lawn mower tank for testing,
It’s easier and safer also
From a 73 year old gas, propane and diesel mechanic in West Texas
You need about 62 to 65 lbs or more for compression and for it to run any less it's going to run really rough
Hey I lived in Peachtree!
What a nice bunch of folks
Heck yeah we are bubble buddies. Love to meet up
That Peachtree bubble is no joke! lol
@lucasstiles8012 yeah we are on first name basis wirh code enforcement and cops
Don't I know it.
I was down there for 6 months, got to meet those guys at least a dozen times.
Moral of the story, fix the golf carts lights *BEFORE* midnight cruises.
Hey. A tool you need. A 24" chain wrench. You won't be fumbling trying to get a socket on those cranks. Wrap that chain around pulleys and all. Work good disassembling hydraulic cylinders too.
That's awesome he got to ride his dad's tractor.
use mineral oil in the transmission and rear end its altogether you can get it at tractor supply
Definitely a full restoration,,seems like all the parts are there. #JustaFewAcres , Pet has done few, they look like they just came out the showroom.
Good video I enjoyed it Hank
I rebuilt a 1950 8n a few years ago. They’re good little chore tractors, just don’t put a front end loader on it. The front end isn’t built for that kind of weight. I use mine to put in a garden each spring, and to skid logs around.
Also, I’ve got new front tires and tubes for that width front available if anyone needs some. I decided to go with wider front tires.
You supposed to be laughing the same valve to the valve guide this is not just to shine it up, but this is one to comments that you’ve generated. Have a great day big Ed from Central City Kentucky. Wishing you a great day.
Pull all the spark plugs and open throttle all the way to check compression, good luck.
That tractor brings back memories. We have a smaller version at our farm. It was used to plow fields of Bird of Paradise 60+ years ago. I put tons of miles on it when I was a kid. Just realized we still have it stuck in a shed.
looks like a 8N nice tractor to do
Great Job gentlemen
My Dad ended up buying a lil 8N from a buddy of his... That's one mighty lil bulldog of a tractor.. Plus he decided it would be fun to restore a ol Claxon horn he had and put it on the tractor.. Kids get a good laugh at the ooogah! ooogah from that ol horn...
I have a 1949 8n that my grandpa bought brand new in 1949. Great little tractors. Very solid.
Is wily not doing these videos with you anymore
he was in this one........
Love it
@HamiltonvilleFarm what I mean was he didn't help ya with this one.
Thats awsome Hank. My Uncle had one of those when I was growing up
Blessing Always come to those who constantly Praise the Name of Jesus.
my grandfather had one I grew up driving it. the one you have had not been converted to a 12-volt system yet. we did so much with that tractor I miss that. even though the coil says 12 that appears to be a 6-volt generator.
It looks like my dad’s 8N. Also, that was probably calcium coming out of the rear tires since they had calcium tubes (I know this because I had the same thing happen when I tried putting air into the tires on dad’s 8N)
Thanks!
Thank you buddy.
Great history thanks for sharing
I just bought a 48 8n as well. I've been having so much fun restoring it!! Paid 550 for her
That's super cool good luck.
Lots of new parts for them and a tad high price but it’s worth it 😊
Im in same 8n group .bruce is the administrator. He is very knowledgeable .
Yes, he's super smart!!
hank you should check for spark and compression first before you get to far...
You guys were a blast to watch and it was fun but I had to keep my mouth shut 🤫
Don't give up a hope I know you gonna get going
I stand corrected! Your tractor is late 40'2 by looking at the steering. It was called wobble joint. Later the steering box was adjustable. Later the stabilizer arms were tubular not "I- beam".
like to see you restore it Hank
Very nice well done. Have a great day.
Hank, You already said it was converted to 12v. You can run the 6 volt starter on 12 Volts. Just change the coil and the condenser and generator and you should be good
Not painting a restored tractor, we said we left it in its work clothes.
N series Tractors are awesome and everything you will need is available!
Oven cleaner I've been using it on greasy parts since the 1970s. Best stuff for old Quaker State oil.
First time to do is check the antifreeze level and amount
AllWAYS 😊
This comment is for the guys doing the rebuild. That is NOT the way to lap the valves and seats. You have to lap the individual valves to its own seat and you are using WAY too much compound. Put oil on the surface to make the suction cup hold and lap it until the sound changes, then lift it a little and put it back down. That lets a little more of the compound back into the seat and do that several times. It is done when the shiny band is equal all the way around on BOTH the seat and the valve. Leave that valve there and go to the next one. Each one stays with the cylinder into which it was lapped. Don't mix them. If you mix them or only lap the seat, the valve will not seat properly and you get low compression and burnt valves.
