Got home from work today, neighbor is all excited. He drug home a 46 2N that hadn't run in 2 years. Wanted to know if I could get it started. He paid a parts tractor price for it. He put a fresh 12 volt battery in it and he could get it to turn over bypassing the starter switch. I showed him the starter on top of the tranny; it worked - big smile on his face. Next we checked for spark - none. He said the seller told him it probably needed points and that you had to take the radiator off to change the points. I showed him how to remove the dist and I cleaned and set the points. Check for spark again it it was good. Checked the oil level - good and looked clean. Good antifreeze in the rad. He had already cleaned out the gas tank and added fresh gas. Turned on the gas and the ignition and fired it up. Caught on about the second revolution. Sounded OK except for a bad exhaust gasket. Neighbor was very excited that I got it to run!
This tractor has some weird stuff on it but the weirdest thing is the steering wheel.
