I put up some pictures and info about our Case last week. I had time this morning to look a little closer at it. Its always been very reliable and Ive never really had to work on it. As a result even though weve owned it for a decade Im still fairly ignorant about case tractors and equipment. The engine set up is familiar to me, 4 cylinder gas engine, updraft carburetor, same firing order as my Farmalls. It has developed a hard start and now a no start situation. Cranks over fine but it wont catch, just cranks. After looking at it I think its in desperate need of a tune up. The folks at J.I. Case put all the adjustment info right in the valve cover so I have all I should need there.
I have 12 volts to the distributor but when I manually open the points I dont get a consistent spark. The points look really dirty, the plug wires are so brittle Im scared theyll break if I move them much. The plugs are really rusty too. The questions right now are mostly about getting parts. I guess the first one is, whats the difference between a 830 and a 830 Comfort King? I have been getting my parts from this site but I dont see what I need for this tractor. Our local farm store didnt have anything for it either. I will need points, rotor, cap,wires, and plugs. Where do the case guys go for parts?
This is a Prestolite 1BT-4403 distributor. And Champion D16 plugs. Should I stick with those or is there a better plug? Also Ive never had the carburetor off the tractor. This seems like the time to have a look at it too.
Can you tell us what carburetor we have here and where I can get a kit for it? I hope to order parts this week. As always thanks for your help and knowledge!

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
