Well I must say I have learned so many new things working this old bit of farming history. The old girl fired right up. After a small problem found in oil system of the rocker arm shaft the engine runs oh so good. The wife came out and asked if it was suppose to run like that. I said like what? See said it runs so smooth better than any she heard at her father’s home. (OK he has Green ones yellow ones and Orange one but not a red one) I thank many people here on this site you were a great help. I plan to stick around look the reading and learning. Plan to find another B or BN and try this again. But there is always something. Would love to find an air breather assembly to replace the one I have which has this great set of dent and a bend in the tube that I can't get out. But its fun the play.

Kevin, Is this the same tractor that your machinist screwed up the crank by cutting to .040 under or was that someone else's post.

What did you do to fix the rocker oil problem? Use JB Weld as you mentioned?

Yes this is the same Tractor. One of the guys here on the site sent me a crank (thanks Bill)which .010 under after he had it ground. Gave me a great price and sent it up to me. The oiling problem. What I found was the orignal stud which supplies oil had been pulled out of the head. If you remember this motor is not the original but was a power unit for something else. I remade yet a longer stud and was thankfull that someone before me taped the hole very deep. I put the new stud in and used JB weld to fill in the casting where the material was gone. filed the area smooth and bolted the rocker shaft back on. Started the motor again and found the oil was coming out of each rocker arm. Have run her for about a hour now and she runs with 40 psi of oil presure. this weekend I am going to replace the gage with a original one. other then that I need to find where a little water leak is (think it is the upper hose clamp) and also I think look for a different gas tank being the eastwood sealer was not able to completly stop the leak. But over all I am very happy with how it all turned out. Must say I really want to hook onto something and pull it hard.

Nothing like a project tractor starting and running great. Way to go!
