So I have a 52 8n that has been sitting 3 years now. I started working on it trying to get it running. I replaced the starter, battery, points, condenser, coil, plugs and wires, and rotor button and cap on the distributor and Rebuilt the carb as well. I poured a little transmission fluid down each spark plug hole to help lubricate the rings and valves while I was priming the oil pump. After some time I was able to get it to fire off, I let it run for about 10 minutes as it smoked and burned the transmission fluid out of the cylinders, the smoke cleared up and it ran for another 5 minutes and then died and wouldnt crank back up. I tried everything including a little starting fluid, cant even get a sputter out of it. It has fuel, air, my spark is good but sometimes it will have a orange spark and then itll go back to a strong blue spark which isnt normal I know. I havent done a proper compression test yet due to a lack of time haha. But it has enough compression to blow my thumb off the plug holes. Any ideas? The governor is also loud at a low idle when I did have it running.

Well, when our family moved to our 20 acre site near New Prague, Minnesota, I had one thought in mind. You guessed it, farm it somehow. A little history is in order. In my younger days, mom, dad and my brother made frequent visits to dad's youngest brother Pete, who took over the home farm from grandpa MIke. It was the typical set-up, milk cows, pigs & chickens. In the winter, we'd play
