Farmall B Distributor Shaft

Samuel Chapman · Jul 11, 2008

Does anyone have any tips or tricks for replacing the dist. shaft on a B w/ battery ignition? I changed the points and noticed alot of side-side slop in the shaft. I'm pulling what's left of my hair out trying to get the points set right.

Take it apart and replace the bushings.

Where could I get the bushings?

I-H dealer can get them or take it to a machine shop they would have or could make them. Lowes has a good supply also. When you have it running use a dwell meter and that would tell you if it requires an overhaul thousands of them are running well and probably have some play on the shaft as you know this isnt a racing engine. Ive worked on some that had some play but they started and ran well with a good set of points.
