Norm........4-speed 8N's were first mfg in 1949. Your 3-speed 2N was mfg 1942-1948. Based upon yer complaint, my WAG (wild A$$ guess) is you've gottchur sparkies miss-wired. Probably #2 & #3 swapped. Yeah, the 4-nipple front mount izza bugger. Points are 0.015 and best adjusted on the kitchen table. Me? I'd clamp the corner of $1-bill between the points and pull. Polish the INVISIBLE CORROSION from between the points. Ennytime you have starting issues, replace yer sparkies (again?) Recommend AutoLite 437's gapped 0.025. 2nd advice, learn how-to adjust yer carbie. Set the down-pointing MAINJET to 2-turns and LEAVITT!!! Adjust the side-pointing idlemix fer FASTEST idle, NOT SMOOTHEST idle. Understand the difference??? Ennythang under 500-rpms is good. I once got my eazy starting 6-volt 8N to idle 375-rpms onna transistorized tachometer. .........HTH, Dell, yer self-appointed sparkie-meister

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
