First the question, I have a 1955 Ford 850 I would like to know how to tell if you have a single plate clutch or a dual plate clutch, it has a 5 speed transmission, from what I"m reading from a copy of the original shop manual it could possibly have a dual clutch on it, thanks again for the help, and finally, as I"ve learned things I"ve actually been to help on a couple of questions that other people have posted.
I"m sharing the lesson learned because I don"t want someone to do the same thing and get hurt or their tractor damaged, I got lucky no harm, went out yesterday to start the tractor and repair 2 front flats, checked the oil and it was WAY over full checked it several times thought a moment and thought maybe just a fluke so I decided to crank it and CAUTIOUSLY watch it, oil immediately starts blowing every where instantly shut it down, checked the radiator 1st then trans fluid everything good there step back a moment scratch my head trying to figure this out, decide to check the gas tank, bone dry apparently the float stuck Sunday when I cranked it to run for a moment and I didn"t shut off tank valve and the gas ran into the carb and up through the intake, so folks, please remember to shut off your fuel valve under the tank, I drained over 3 gal. of oil and gas out of the oil pan.
