So cool to see Dad and daughter working together. Great job! Love the content too!!
I know these videos are always high quality and punch the like button before even watching.
I am sooooo impressed by this young woman.
What a great and well-explained video for this topic. I would have never expected to find a video for this entire topic. Now I’m ready to rebuild our old 9N!
Always a pleasure watching you guys work on a tractor.
Extremely well done Instructional videos. Very impressive.
A first-class instruction video Rachel. Clear, precise instructions. Well done.
Your videos are amazing! Short, sweet, quick to the point and yet still filled with all the information needed. Wish more how to videos were like yours. Trying to decide between a farmall cub or an 8n 🤔 for my first.
She doesn’t get full of grease and oil. Dad has been a great teacher..... fun to watch...
Good vid guys. These tutorials are really helpful for those of us who have good basic mechanical knowledge, but need a little guidance on the bigger jobs. I like how you include some of the mistakes, like when Rachel left the bolt in the governor housing. We all do shit like that.
Definitely a daughter a father can be proud of ❤
It is always a pleasure to watch and listen to someone who not only knows what they are talking about, but can do the work. Great job
Hi! This is the first Ford tractor model that my grandfather bought for his farm, and its a very nice tractor and works a lot with sugar cane plantation! Good memories!!!!!!!! Thanks !!!
What? Went looking for vid #2, then realized that this installment was only 13 hours old. I'm on pins and needles. Wonderful stuff.
Me too 🤣
Starting this weekend my son and I will be doing this on a 1939 9n. Fantastic videos.
Great video. I worked on a few motors. I am amazed you were able to do all that work without getting covered in oil. I must be a magnet.
I agree with the .001 per inch diameter clearance. Watching you guys is like going back and working with my dad. Same generation of Craftsman tools especially the cotter pin removal tool that we used on anything but cotter pins. LOL.
YES!! Thank you! Love your channel and your website!
What a coincidence...me and my wife bought a 9.5 acre property. And I found a 9n without compression. This video is great. Thank you. I subscribed
Your videos are the Most educational tractor Repair videos I have ever seen, Your dad must be proud, Pet, I know I am very impressed.
Thank you for all the content new post.
Hi Rachel I always enjoy your videos
How serendipitous, I am currently rebuilding my Ford, 2/8N Franken-Ford.
Having are good dad is so wonderful
Compliments to the very nice lady narrating the whole process very interesting watching step-by-step with highlight safety comments along the way.
I have three Ford tractors one 1956…. 850 and two 1957 850s.
I am 73 years old and I have driven the 1956 850 that my father purchased new since I was eight years old.
It was rebuilt in 1996 and is running just fine today.😊🥰👍
Excellent. Thanks for all your videos.
I so can't wait to show my nieces some of the videos you have! They enjoy working on cars and trucks with me, but are under the impression that being a mechanic is for boys only!?!? I can't wait to show them a pretty young lady can be a great mechanic. Teaching my 11yr old nieces that they can do anything boys do and probably better has been a goal of mine who thank you for helping prove that true!
Nice work and workmanship Thank you Rachel
Thanks for the excellence
Been Waiting for this series!!!!
Thank you for this, as always.. Amazing.
Excellent presentation!
Long time fan... you both know how to tear down an engine! Lol
Keep up the great work.
Just became the proud owner of a 8n in great condition but has the infamous stuck clutch. Will be glued to this Channel for a long time. Thank you Rachel and Dan for the wealth of information 🙏
....oh P.S. noticed you draining antifreeze and getting it all over your hand. Grease and oil is fun but coolant is another matter. Antifreeze even in low quantities will cause renal failure. Your skin will absorb it through pores and especially if there are any small cuts in your skin. Please stay safe.
Good job lots of good information very helpful. Thanks!!
Really enjoy you all’s content
Very informative video. I’ve always wanted to restore one of these old tractors
Hi worked as a plant fitter for many years in England, we would never never use pry bar's or screw when removing the head,just a good block of oak and a hammer, then no damage is done.Liam kilkee Clare Ireland.😘
Super useful it shows a lot of good steps for this flat head engine
Great video very informative thank you for sharing
Love these videos
This is fantastic, thank you!
I haven't been on a Ford 8N since the summer of 1966 working in my parents' orchard in the Canadian Okanagan Valley, before heading back to Vancouver BC for second-year university. The 8N is a very simple machine of clever design, easy to use, easy to maintain, but underpowered by modern standards & a bit of a gas-guzzler. Both my brother & sister inherited the fruit-growing bug, but migrated to diesel John Deere machines in the early 1970s. Those machines are still working well after almost 50 years, albeit with a few relatively major rebuilds {hydraulic subsystems, PTO clutches, etc}. Thankfully they don't have any on-board computers - no "right-to-repair" issues!
Fun with dad. Always good content and good knowledge.
That engine reminds me a lot of the L134 in my 48 cj2a. Thanks for the nice video, got some good tips from it.
They're very similar in displacement.
Love you all.
And i love your videos and i have no tractors .
❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💯
I'm impressed young lady...this is fantastic 😊
Excellent video guys
I love watching people rebuild engines. Looking forward to the next three (3) parts of this series.
Great video. I can’t wait for you to start working on Case tractors;)
Never learned to use gloves to do motor work , seems to be something new ...too me ! love the series you are doing for tractor people ! very informative !
I hit like as soon as I started watching a young lady with interest in a Ford N restoration, and it only got better from there.
Nice seeing dad passing on his knowledge to his girl. She definitely doesnt need a man around to show her how to work on stuff
She doesn't? I think Dad is a man, who is showing /teaching her.
@@TMD4343 did you not read that first sentence boss?
Great video!
Rachel, You are very great master.. 💝
I found out about using over sized pistons the hard way. To make it a bit easier to extract the sleeves we would run a few beads of weld the length of the sleeve. When it cools it shrinks the sleeves slightly. I did just that only to discover the block wasn't sleeved.
I wish you guys would do a tutorial on setting throttle and governor linkage. Sure would be helpful.
Love these videos. Just wish it wasn’t sped up as I’d rather see a long in-depth video than a short one since so many parts of the process. Just a thought but thank you 😁
She is briliant and she knows all about this things... i m charmed by her so much...
I sure enjoyed the video thank you
Hey, I can do this! Now I just need a shop with a concrete floor. No problem. Just hook up the ol' post holer to the... crud.
A paradox
1/4 plywood is your friend
I have never seen a cleaner mechanic in my life
We had an 8N when I was growing up. It had been modified by Ford, to use a flat head 6 cylinder engine. Adapter piece for the engine to transmission was about4 inches thick, and steering gear, stabilizer bars were extended with added pieces that were included in kit. The hood also had an extra extension on it, so it covered back to the steering assembly.
I haven't seen any of them on here at all. Wondering if they are still around.
Had that problem with my 48 8N. went to change the oil and the pickup tube fell off. Used JB weld to put it back on. Works perfect now.
Good job . Someone tought you well . I know too many men that don't know half as much as you about mechanics.
Odd.... The infamous flat head V8 ford used to make also has only three main bearings. I never considered getting an 8N but after working on my friend's 8N and seeing your videos, I am finding this a really cool little tractor.
Learned alot from you. Would like a video to replace front oil seal. Thank you
thank you !!!
My 9N needs this bad!
good video thank you
Wish UA-cam was around back in 1974 when I rebuilt my 8n
my great grandpa farmed with a 8n ford. Tough reliable old tractor
Great visep
My 8N has excellent oil pressure 20-40lbs depending on temperature and rpm, but it’s a real oil burner. However, it runs very well and has decent power. I was thinking it may be the rings and purchased a compression tester. Just haven’t had time to tackle it yet, but I’d love to rebuild it.
I have a tape of Dan and Guy doing a 8N,9N,and2N overhaul about twenty years ago.
Thanks you
Tractor explain good information
Always respectively good information^^♥
This is south Korea
Yellow land farm
The 'dad' commented the lifters had been change to the adjustable kind. That entire valve assembly and adjustable lifter had been used by Ford since at least 1937, in the flathead V8. Your tractor is a lot newer than 1937. I assisted with the rebuild of my granddads 1952 8N in years past, I'm 75 now, and it also had the same adjustable lifter. The guy I was helping didn't take the C-clips out to remove the valve assembly instead, he compressed the valve springs and removed the keepers off the valve stem. What a mess that was!
Some important notes that missed.
1. Part where you block the tractor for pulling the front axle. I would strongly recommend that you also chalk/block both rear tires. Because your pulling the motor leaving it in gear may not be enough to keep things from moving if some big dummy happens to lean on the tire.
Rachel: We're gonna gently pry this front cover off!
Rachel's Dad: beats screwdriver with hammer
Hi Rachel. Yet another awesome video. Thank you. Was wondering if you had any suggestions on a problem I am having with a fully rebuilt 1964 Ford 4000 Diesel? I am getting diesel in the engine oil causing smoke among other things. The injector pump is brand new and not apparently the problem as it has been tested. Any ideas? Thanks so much!
Very nice demo. Just have a couple questions. Can I eliminate the sleeves all together? How much can you bore the motor. Want to make more horse power for a vintage racer.
Good Job mam thanks👍🇮🇳🚜🚜😁😁
Rachel around the tie rod on to the stables are so that the wheels do not turn and that way you could roll it wherever you want to roll it to
Rachel my phone screwed up
I said I always get a hose clamp and put it around the tie rod and the stay brace that way the wheels will stay where you put them and you can push it wherever you want otherwise they'll just flop around and you won't be able to move it very easily as you know unless you have a cherry picker and pick the axle up

Wow my. Kind of girl soo much knowledge 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Excellent video as always THANKS !!!!
Please make content for governor compensation spring.
How do you stay so clean doing this? I'd have grease and oil from head to toe.
I have a Massey Ferguson 35 with a three cylinder perkins diesel.If I want to replace rings , can I leave the block in the frame and drop the pan?
Is there a video showing how to remove the oil pan without removing the front end of the 8n?
Would you have a video on repairing brakes on a 38/39 F14 Farmall
The precision engine tech in me is screaming. I had to continuously remind myself that this is a 1940s/50s tractor. 😂
got a problem with my 9n- put new distributer on- started right up- next morning would not start again and found the new distributer had locked -will not turn so the points can open and close how do I fix this?
I have an oil pan leak on my 1949 8 n! Can I change gasket and oil pump without splitting the tractor? 7:54
Great video! FYI......Your Parts link is not valid anymore.
I am not the only one who uses a Craftsman screwdriver prybar!
Is that just a standard puller ypu use for the puck to pull the sleeves?
Hi. I may have missed something( it wouldn't be the first time), but why do the sleeves need replaced? Couldn't they be re-honed?
So I'm replacing the drive shaft for the hydraulic pump on my 63 Ford tractor and I decided to take a look under the valve cover and have discovered I'm missing a pushrod and now I'm thinking a rebuild kit would be smart
I have a ford jubilee. With high and low range. I haven't seen a replica yet that has the same shifting pattern as mine
You do a great presintation your dad and you have a great working relationship he's really proud of you. You have no fear. And like what your doing. Sky's the limey. Best of luck to you both. I will be following you and see were you go. Good go from hhere Sir Raymond Lepp
Hay I have a 9 N and I’m having problems with keeping to running, I had the carburetor rebuilt, and brought it home and installed it , and tried to get the tractor started, I only stays running for about 10 to A15 seconds and Lopes , and dies, after a while gas started running out of the Venturi, air inlet, i don’t know how it adjust it , I don’t want to take the gasket, do you have a trick to get it adjusted, ??? Nice thanks , I need a answer soon, thanks BigAl California.
Big Al, I'm having the same issue with my 8N. I think the float is sticking down. My carb looks like the original so I bought a new one. I will get it today and let you know if that solves it. I hope Rachel can pop in here but I see her and her dad are quite busy.
@@jeffemiller1470 I called the carb shop , they said it probably already got some trash in it form the old gas tank that I did not clean like a dummy, so I went and drained it and then I checked the spark again, a low a behold , no spark , so my problem now are s spark, the float was stock too, but for the most part mine is electrical.
I have a few tractors, and one of my others had a ballast resistor and the other resistor thing that comes on it, and I took that off and I’m gonna try and adapt it to my 9 N ,because, I have no ballast resistor at all on this one, I think I burned up the coil , not sure , kool thank , BigAl California.
