Got some quick work onthe H this am before heading off to work.
I was overjoyed to find that most of the 'leaks' were maintenance / lack of maintenance issues.
Loose petcocks, loose oil filter, oil bath cup.. stuff that was letting oily dirt collect.. etc.
gas line had a leak.. 1 drain plug had a drip.
I think I actually got all the leaks staunched, or 90% under control.
man those wheel weights are heavy. had to slide them off the trailer and drop eminto the pasture, then roll them to the barn.
the bolts for em will likely need some chasing.. but looks like everything is in the bag.. heads don't look beat up or rusted off.. loks almost as good as the ones on my C.
will have to lookup the sn, am thinking mid 40's.. say 43-45.. had a lil cheater paper with me that ya'll posted with some of the suffixes.. etc.. and i hand jotted some sn ranges down out of the manual, but it was near dark when i got there.. so.. I'm glad to say that she even looks better in the light.
have pulled the hood off.. regulator is twitchy. if you rap on it with a screwdriver handle it will charge for a few seconds.. then go back to discharge.
appears to have had the genny vonverted to 12v.. has a 12v bat and coil, and reg is new and marked 12v. genny shows signs of rework within 'recent' time. bushing/bearing in genny feels good if you spin the pulley by hand.
regualtor has 2 screws holdignthe cover on.. might see if one of the contacts is bent or not tweaked right in the field or cutout..
she felt a lil odd being backed off my deckover gooseneck.. when i trailer her again I may back on.. :)
wife left for lakeland for a teachers conference and snagged the camera.
I'll try to get a cell phone pic if I can figure out how to get it uploaded out of the phone memory.
oh well.. headed out a couple cities north myself for work. just stopped for a drink and tank drainin' :)

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
