Hey All,
I"m having a situation with a binding issue on my
newly overhauled Farmall B. It is a 6v system and
it will slowly turn about a half a turn and then
bind up. The crazy thing is if you take the spark
plugs out and release compression it spins like a
sewing machine! Let me list for you what I"ve
tried thus far.
-Switched to a new, known good, starter. Same
result.
-Took the plugs out and it spins fine.
-Took the manifold off and checked for
obstructions. It"s clear.
-Checked the valves since I thought it was a
compression issue. They are perfect in clearance
and functionality.
-Pull started it! It runs like a top. (I"m excited
it was my first overhaul ever) I let it run and
hoped by some miracle it would "loosen up"
something seized I wasn"t seeing.
None of this has helped the starter issue. Any
ideas?
