Fawteen, Here was my last post. Can you help or know who can?
1930 McCormick-Deering 22-36 I have dismantled the transmission and once I completed the cleanup, I found a couple of tapered roller bearings that need replacement. BEFORE teardown, I noticed that the oiler (sometimes called oil) gear has about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of side play. This gear has a brass or bronze bushing and runs on the bearing cage. My question is, should it have this sideplay? I think the answer is yes, because with the shaft spacer and the oiler gear retainer washer, there is nothing else able to take up this side play. I'm guessing that the side play promotes the splashing of oil up to the pulley drive gear. The oiler gear is .755 inches wide and the pulley drive pinion that it mates with is 1.116 inches wide, to allow for side play, I suppose, but perhaps mostly because the pinion is of the correct strong width to mate with the pulley drive gear. If anyone knows anything about this, please let me know. Or, if anyone has seen a similar phenomenon in other transmissions, please let me know. Thanks, Tom in Iowa City

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
