Dan & Rachel, this channel has helped me immensely fix and maintain a Ford 8N a friend gifted me. I've been purchasing parts from your site. Thank you very much for this valuable content.
I'm new to your Channel I was browsing thru the internet & landed upon your Channel I'm glad I did now I have watched a few of your videos & have enjoy your showcase talent for a young woman you have great knowledge you can do much more than I can even dream of doing I don't know where you got your talent from you do very well know what you are doing BIG THUMBS UP & KUDOS to you I very well like what I see you must be able to do a lot of work on an Auto & Truck as well
My 601 recently sputtered out and died and all it does is turn over and not fire up. I tested the spark and it has 3 really weak sparks and 1 won’t even light up the tester. The plugs/wires/cap/coil/starter solenoid/rotor are all new so I’m not sure where to even look to see why it won’t fire up anymore
Rachel. I just bought a 47 ford 2n. Ran great. Mowed a field. Then died. Going to figure out the issue tomorrow. I noticed it was hooked up negative ground. I switched it but could that have hurt something?
at 1:09, you say to check "here" on the distrubutor for power... What exactly is it you are testing there? I have an old 8N (front distributor). I have power coming out of the top of the coil, per tester, but no power getting to the sparkplugs, per inline tester. I just replaced the points, and the light test shows they are opening and closing. Is the next step to replace the spark plug wires? They are in a metal tube/thingie.
did you figure out what to do? im not getting any spark either. coil is good but no spark. e mail me if you like its farmerdobson1234@gmail.com my name is jeff thanks
Rachel .. this is totally off the subject from this video .. BUT .. do you recommend an additive for gas? (I would like to know also about 2 cycle engines - especially chainsaws - do you have an additive that keeps the gas clean .. etc? Also, I have several 6 volt tractors .. that start GREAT and run great too .. ... is there an advantage to converting to 12 volt relative to power? [better spark-etc with 12 volt?] Thanks .. Gary
Im not getting spark. I charged the battery backwards. I for sure thought the starter wouldn't work but its cranks great. Is it possible I fried the distributor instead? The battery needed charged after I ran it at low Idol ,it wouldn't start back up afterwards, the issue might not be the charge mistake. What are your thoughts? Thanks
good afternoon I have a question I have a problem hopefully you can help me I have a Ford tractor 8N four cylinder I believe today when I was trying to cut my yard the hydraulic will stay engaged up and when I put the liver down it will stay up will could be my problem can you help thanks
Sounds the valve in the bottom of your tractor is stuck. The valve is located in the body of the pump. Fix it by draining the transmission oil, refilling with three gallons of diesel and starting the tractor up for a minute or two. Turn the tractor off and drain all of the diesel. Refill with new hydraulic oil. This process will clean the reservoir and make your valve operate smoothly again. This is an easy and affordable trick that has worked for us many times.
Anyone... Ford 8N Side Mount Distributor (Using exact tools as depicted in this video) I have 12v to coil... 12v from coil to distributor... Light flashes indicating that points are opening and closing... No spark at all at spark plug.
It sounds like the wires on your solenoid are switched up. (Note Ford 8N tractors were made in 1948-1952, I'm guessing you made a simple type-o on the year or model, regardless, the issue you're explaining is usually the solenoid wires installed on the wrong side of the solenoid--the one that feeds the dash is likely on the wrong side).
Dan Gingell and Rachel Gingell sorry I didn’t get back to you yes it was the wires runs fine, it’s my stepson the person he got it from said it was a 8m 1967 model was just going. Y what they said
yes it is i didn't catch at first, but she does mention early in the lesson. i cant get any spark in mine, but the light does flicker..barely. (using a 12v tester like she did).
If you could just movie the camera back a few more feet so it's even harder to see what your talking about. "Put your tester here" Where? Can't see from 20 feet away!

This is a nice illustration of the electrical circuit in the motor, you have a star

Good video but I don’t need a full body shot - I need a closeup to see what you are doing and where to attach tool. Frustrating
Hey Rachel thank you for the videos they are helping me with my Ford 600 Jubilee. I just had to get a new gas tank. And Im working on it myself.

I found easier way to check for spark have someone hold the spark plug whiles its still hooked to the tractor and turn the engine over
Maybe I missed something but when testing the coil you only showed a side mount distributor what about a front mount ? How do you test that coil?
can you move that camera a Little Closer

We had alot of rain and now my 1958 Ford 8n won't start. I left it out in the rain. Any advice? Thanks

Ok my wires are hot on the tester but I’m not getting fire to my coil wire from the coil
Tractor turns over but try to start. Replace points, plugs, wires, coil, voltage regulator, carb, rewire starter wire, what might be wrong with it

thank you very much I will try that should I do diesel oil or diesel fuel??
Fuel
thank you very much you've been very helpful God bless you

Ok I got a 67 ford 8m it will run but when I disengage the starter it dies I notice I’m getting spark when it’s engaged but none when disengaged

Dan Gingell and Rachel Gingell thanks much I’ll check that out
BRENDAJASON1 it could be your ballast resistor/wiring to it is open.
Dan Gingell and Rachel Gingell sorry I didn’t get back to you yes it was the wires runs fine, it’s my stepson the person he got it from said it was a 8m 1967 model was just going. Y what they said
Jerry Wick it was the wires that was backwards
Is this still an original Jubilee with 6 volt positive ground? Thanks for your help and time. Cool paint job btw, and great vids!
yes it is i didn't catch at first, but she does mention early in the lesson. i cant get any spark in mine, but the light does flicker..barely. (using a 12v tester like she did).
But the engine of tractor is gasoline ?
Rachel...your Tractor actually Needs 3 things to Start/Run:
1.) Spark
2.) Fuel
3.) Air
Spark fuel compression
buddy i bet she could do more mechanic work on this tractor than you
If you could just movie the camera back a few more feet so it's even harder to see what your talking about. "Put your tester here" Where? Can't see from 20 feet away!
"Enough compression, Spark at about the right time, a combustable fuel". Pick one. Test for it. Confirm you have it. Pick the next one. Life is good.
Awesome, a pink and grey Ford N series. Not your Dads tractor I will safely assume.
Never and I mean Never hit that starter button while standing in front of the tractor wheel
oh, thanks OSHA inspector!
Jubilee/600 series starter button can't push in if the tractor is in gear. Mechanical safety built in.
