Well I thought I got it fixed part 2

old · Apr 3, 2009

Pulled the radiator today and solder up 3 tubes, it doesn't look real good but only has a pin hole leak so I threw in a bottle of bars leak and that stopped. It had a funny sort of miss to it so I pulled the plugs out and other then they looked old they did not look all that bad. I did clean one and replaced 3 of them, I had 3 laying around from some other job or who knows but had them. The funny miss went bye bye so now its time for the grill and hood and hope the alternator fits under the hood or I'll have to re do the mount or cut the hood. Just kidding about cutting the hood

glad ya got er up and running rich, was gettin worried you were gonna part er out!!!
i been toying with the idea of mounting a log splitter hydraulic pump inside the bolster on an m, take out the crank start unit, and couple the pump to the front of the crankshaft. looks like the pump would fit it there, wouldnt have a big volume, but give ya good pressure and a lot cheaper than going with a live pump set up.

That old beauty will work for a living. Glad to here it operates. Where does it sit in the power curve of your "Herd" of tractors of multi colors? JimN

It sits some place in the middle of the power curve. It is also one I really have no need for but it sure is better to have it then to have had it go for scrap which it also did

Glad to see you are still hanging around there OLD. Radiators and fuel tanks can be a pain to get leak free after they start to get wet on the outside.
