Super A Restoration

With the triple digit heat wave and fires here in Northern California, it has been difficult to get anything done outside. Around 8:00 PM last night the temperature dropped below 95 deg and I made it down to the barn (it was only 110 deg inside). I fired up the swamp cooler and set about adjusting the governor.

Using my trusty service manual once again, I was able to make the necessary adjustments and now have the engine purring nicely at an idle.

My next step will be to hook the Touch Control linkage and get the hydraulics working. Once that is done, I'll run the engine long enough to obtain operating temperature so I can re-torque the head. I can't wait to drive this tractor out of the barn for the first time!
 
Hey Greg, When you get that one done I got an AV, A, C, Super C, 2 H's, and a M you can start on. I live in the Sacramento area so it should be close for me to bring them over.
Which one do you want first? It's too smokey here to even go out and work on anything in the afternoon.

I've always admired the AVs........
I'm in Lakeport, about 2 1/2 hours away from you, that is if you can see the way here for the smoke! It's worse this morning that anything before. I feel very sorry for the people that have lost everything.

Were you at the "Best Show on Tracks"? I was there with a Farmall B and a John Deere L. What a show!
 
Didn"t make the show, but we had planned to. Our friend went and said it was great. That weekend was the start of our guy trip, leave the wives at home, and went fishing at Trinity Lake. The four of us had a 60 foot houseboat and towed our 19 foot fishing boat for a 8 day trip. Well it got cut short to 4 days, SMOKE, and lots of it. We had to use my GPS to find our way back to the marina. We came home thinking fresh air, HA. Oh well. We will be taking our Farmall M and JD MT to the Amador County Fair this year for the first time. They say its a good time, so come on down. It"s July 24 thru 27th in Plymouth Ca.
Let me know when you want the AV, Clearlake isn"t that far.
