Some More Info. on my First Tractor...

Thanks,
N8NO

"How to Restore Your Farm Tractor" book has some good advice and knowledge in it.

Both the 9N 2N 8N Rebuild and Tune-up videos have some good advice. the tune-up is basic, but it walks you through basic maintenance and tune-up visually.

And as mentioned, the must to have is the I&T Manual and locate an Owners Manual too. Between all of these on the shelf references, and advice from this forum, your confidence and abilites will grow by leaps and bounds. Don't worry, throw money at it, and anything that can go wrong can be fixed, mostly by you.

Have fun.

Also check on the bottom of the hydraulic pump houseing, you should find a prod date cast into it, that's not to say the pump houseing wasn't made years before and was sitting on the shelf before it found it's way to the assembly line!(-:

Recommend I&T FO-4 repair manual, readily available at most tractor parts emporiums, sponsors of this great N-Board, even Ford/New Holland fer peets shakes, $25 cheep, gettcha one.

P/N 8N-4024 is p/n for left axle trumpet.

Engine S/N is on left side just under cylinder head seam and can be difficult to read because they were factory hand stamped by some ol'guy that was shakie and week (grin)..... ...Dell
