Rob, thanks for all of your help. My 8n is on the road to recovery. When I couldn't start it over the winter it was a surprise as it had always run perfectly. I ended up installing a new manifold as I found that the old one was cracked. The carb was sloppy at the linkage and I went for a new one. The spark was weak and I installed new points and condensor...still little improvement in the spark so a new coil was next.Good spark now. Still it would not start unless we sprayed gas into the new carb , then it ran good. My neighbor has a 9n and he removed his carb and installed it on my 8n and it started right up...guess it was a faulty new carb. I'm going to install a rebuilt carb and assume all will be ok. Thanks again for your help.
