I just bought a 9n about a month ago. It’s my first tractor. I don’t know the year but the thing runs like a top. All it needed was a quick carb clean and it was perfect.
Awesome. It must have been well maintained or possibly rebuilt/re sleeved. Although the engine may be underpowered compared to today's machines of the same size, overall it's well built and engineered for it's intended use. IT will be amazing to see what comes of today's machines in stock or near stock condition 80 years from now.
Hoping to have my first 41 by the end of the week. Had to trade a pop up camper for it but it comes with a bush hog. Plus it ran good last year. He just didn't put in storage properly. I am a country girl that is trying to start a small homestead at the rip old age of 42. So in this case giving up a small popup camper i used for hunting was a no brainer considering I have a larger camper still if needed.. I am so appreciative for these videos... Learning so Much for you... So please keep putting them out.. Thanks again. Much Love and stay safe out there... S.J.
Thank you for the feedback, and good luck with your tractor. As seen in up coming videos, most of these videos especially for the tractor, are a documenting what I am trying and learning. That is why in a lot I of the tractor videos I say: "it's not a how to but more of how I did it". It's been just as fun to share as to work on it.
I have a 1940 9N. It has the factory Dearborn buzz saw with the factory right angle drive. It is painted like an 8N and I have received some hate mail for that. It can be seen on my you tube channel,” Tractor Talk With Gary “ Thanks for sharing this video. What a wealth of knowledge.
I have the 39, it was running when I bought it but then it suddenly stopped. It had good spark which usually means it can only be fuel related. I traced it all the way to the carburetor and I pulled the carburetor and in the carburetor bowl was a quarter inch of sand and the Jets were completely stuck. I bought a kit and tried to fix it myself I couldn't get the Jets to come out I took it to a tractor place and they said your carburetor is officially dead 😂🤠. So I traded in my kit that was still unopened for a a rebuilt carburetor that's like new. Then I started thinking about the fuel system so I ordered another fuel tank fuel line a grommet for the fuel line to go through so it doesn't abrade and a new site bowl plus everything to go with it including the little filter that goes on top of the petcock. Also when I bought the tractor it had a broken manifold which I replaced along with a new classic style muffler and pipe. Then I started asking myself where did all the sand in the carburetor come from. The suction that's created from the carburetor goes directly to the air filter which is an oil bath type. I don't really want to replace it with the same setup and it's messy and time-consuming to service it especially since I'm probably only going to use it twice a year so I might just put a regular automotive air filter on the pipe leading up to the original air filter and still leave the original one there in case in the future someone wants to buy it because it's still in original condition. Also I wanted to make sure the PTO worked when I bought it the seller was reluctant to remove the cap and he removed the cap and it showed that the PTO does work but oil was running out of the back. I bought the tractor anyway because Steiner tractor had a PTO shaft with a modern spline count so it would hook up to my 6-ft wide PTO driven mower. Also included in that was a oil seal. Everything came in one piece I took out the four bolts pulled out the old one after catching a bunch of oil cleaned the surface and put in the new one with the gasket and tightened it down. I was really afraid that when I pulled out the old one it would fall into pieces inside the pumpkin. Fortunately just pulling it straight back gently worked. Bolting the new one in place also worked but I haven't started it since I had the issue with the carburetor. As soon as I get the new parts I'm going to put them in and fire it up and check out the PTO to make sure that there are no leaks while it's running. Then I'm going to change the front tires to wider tires because I live in an area that's extremely Sandy and those skinny ones just kind of dive down into the sand.
Sounds like a good project. I don’t know about the sand but I had sediment in the fuel system which is why I wanted to start with a new tank. I would think the the hydraulic system would fail before the pto, but I suppose after about 80 years, these tractors have been worked hard on all systems. Best of luck with your tractor.
Thank you for your question. This 9N tractor has had it's ignition system converted to an electronic system. The only calibration in the spark plug ( for this protect tractor) will be the spark plug gap.
Good to know. For most tractors a 1943 Ford would be identified as a Ford-Ferguson (Ferguson System) N-Series model "2N". Your 1943 tractor could be a situation in which there was overlap of the of production or manufacturing/identification of 9N and 2N models, or their parts such as the engine. Generally this shouldn't occur because the models were separated by years but we are now looking back almost 80 years in the past and production during a world at war. It could also be the choice to identify all tractors until 1943 as 9N by the publisher of the shop manual. Although not on all 1942-1947 "2N" models other things to identify them as a 2N would be "2N" stamped on the ford logo in the grille, steel wheels without rubber, hand crank start, choke rod (or hole for it) in front right side of grille.
I also have a 1941 9N. Can you tell me if the steering wheel shaft on the 9N is tapered, or in any other way different from the other N series? My steering wheel is highly resistant to removal by standard pullers, and I don't want to cause damage.
I haven't taken apart the steering box so I ca not confirm if the shaft is tapered. The pinon gear on the end of the shaft is beveled (like a pinion on an automotive rear differential) as it meets up with the left and right gears. The difference is that the 8N is supposed to have worm gear with ball bearing (like some old Ford automotive - manual steering boxes).
I have a 9N, used it for 2 years. I bought it for the 3 point, which worked good until now. It still lifts fine, and if it just sits there it goes up & down just fine with a back blade on it. But if I move it more than 100 yards it no longer goes down#@! I have to shut it off and in an hour or so it will go down on its own. Anybody have any idea what to do? thanks
I am sorry I do not know the solution to your issue. from what I have come across, usually people disassemble the hydraulic system and troubleshoot the issues with part called the exhaust or outlet control valve. good luck.

I just bought a Ford 9n today
That’s awesome. Although Im not rebuilding it, I‘ve had a lot of fun with the machine as a project tractor .

Good tractor serie 9n
How calibration in spark plug? Please

for this protect tractor) will be the spark plug gap.
I just got a 1943 9N tractor. evidently the 9N was made until 1943 according to the shop manual

9n tractors were all gray , 8n tractors are painted like the one in the video
Thanks correct. I think the 2N was also all gray. There are also a few of these tractors with aluminum hood and grills.
I also have a 1941 9N. Can you tell me if the steering wheel shaft on the 9N is tapered, or in any other way different from the other N series? My steering wheel is highly resistant to removal by standard pullers, and I don't want to cause damage.

I have a 1941 also
That’s great. I like that there are still many of these Ford tractors out there.
