Every time i crank my 8N it makes a bunch of load pops continuously. I checked the plug wires and they were fine. Adjustment to the carburator didn't work either. I found a crack/hole on the exaust manifold around the fourth cylinder. Could that be the problem.

Hello group I posted this last week over on the Ferguson site
Your problem sound like what I had a few weeks ago it all started I went to get the tractor out of storage after sitting over winter it started up but only idle and there was a poppingsound coming from the air inlet it was pushing air back out the inlet everyone said you have a stuck intake valve removed the head and did a valve job valves were pretty well carboned up I right away thought that a chunk of carbon came lose and kept a valve from closing after valve job reintstalled and went to start still only idle air still coming out the inlet so now I am stumped someone said did u check for plugged exhaust BINGO took the exhaust off and there was a least 3-4 cups of corn and oats inside I tried to force air into the end it was plugged solid replaced exhaust and man does she run good all new tractor check exhaust clearfield

Forgot to say this also. With a cracked manifold you could have a burnt valve or 2 and that would be very true if you have run it very long that way

Have you checked the compression?? Sounds like you may have a valve problem.

Yeah holes in the manifold are a problem. Fix it.
Try something, switch wires on 3 & 4 distributor nipples see if the pop goes away.

I tried switching the 3 and 4 wires and it would not crank. I almost positive the wires are correct. The problem is when i try to plow or pull something. The tractor wants to go dead. There is fire coming from the exaust manifl where the exaust pipe fits. Is the hole in the manifold the source of no power?

Sure could be the source of no power and the pop likely also. You might have one cylinder not firing at all. You need all 4 firing to plow even though 2 will get it running sometimes.
You can buy a tube of high-temp exhuast repair goop if you can"t go the $50 or $60 to replace the manifold and gaskets.
There at the clamp; loosen it and lift on the clamp as you tighten. I go so far as snugging it up and then rapping on the bottom sides to drive the clamp higher before another 1/4 or 1/2 turn. The clamp needs to ride high on the manifold and then it lifts up on the exhaust pipe as you tighten the clamp thereby making a tight fit. The clamp should fit tight on around the neck on the manifold or it"s upside down.
No telling what will change if your manifold doesn"t have holes in it. It may be messed up where you can"t see. Holes in the manifold are not something you work around. Fix it.

Anonimous..... ...replace yer OLD BURNED OUT manifold with a NEW one $50 (cheap) There is some internal webbing/divider that occasionally burn out from longtime hard engine work. Causes miss-firing and loss of power. You doubt? The exhaust manifold glows at night (you won't see it in the daylite) and is actually hot enuff to light a cigarette.

Repair yer burned-out block section with HI-TEMP EPOXY. (NOT J&B Weld) check yer autoparts store for hi-temp puckey..... ....Dell
