8n has no oil pressure at gauge

rjones70 · Mar 28, 2017

Yes I have a 1951 ford 8n. I'm in the process of restoring my great granddads tractor, today was the first time to start it after about 2 years. It starts and also has oil coming out of all lines but no pressure? Please help!

If you have oil coming out of the lines, you have oil pressure. You just don't have a means of measuring it.

Buy a new gauge.

If gauge is original it could be gummed up from setting for so long. You can purchase new aftermarket gauges -correct N-Series is 0-50 PSI, you don't need the later 0-80 PSI gauge on an N. If you have an original and want to part with it my email is open...

is the oil coming out under pressure, or just dribbling out?
