Steve........you do know 8N's have 2-differnt dizzy's don't you??? the weird 4-nipple frontmount with 1-terminal square ignition coil; and the more common looking 5-nipple sidemount with semi-bulletproof round can ignition coil.
A BAD condenser will show-up in the FIRST 1-minute of operation. NOT YER PROBLEM. Keep yer itchy-twitchy fingers off'n them handy-dandy carb tweek'ums.
Dont't fergitt, yer N-tractor fuel system is gravity feed and 2-hrs of operation could create a VACUUM in the fuel tank which could self-relieve inna'bout 1/2-hr. Never hurts to un-snapple yer gas-capple when yer tractor stalls.
The squarecan ignition coil of the 4-nipple dizzy will generally run fer about 1-hr before the INTERNAL insulative tar melts and causes WEAK SPARKIES just as you complain. It takes about 1-to-4hrs for the internal insulative tar to re-harden and make strong sparkies.
The ONLY cure fer melted squarecan ignition coil is REPLACEMENT. Unfortunately, many neubie shadetree mechanics BYPASS the "infamous ballast resistor" for hotter sparkies and eazier starting. And then guess what??? MELTED tar and weak sparkies. Both the original 6V and the modern 12V squarecan coil NEED the MANDATORY ballast resistor. NO ARGUE!!! ..........Dell, yer self-appointed sparkie-meister

Whilst rooting in the hedge bottoms this week I had cause to visit Chapel lane Farm, the home of an eccentric gentleman by the name of Austin Kendall. I had heard rumours that an old Case Model C was languishing away in the back of one of the outbuildings there. So off I went in search of what would turn out to be a very rare and unusual tractor. Mr Kendall is an excitable chap to say the least. He is amongst the last of a dying breed of farmer who
