Thanks,

Fordson F rear wheels
Hi, I am looking for some information about some rear wheels fitted to a 1923 F that we have bought. I was wondering if they have been a local conversion or if they were available as a retrofit item in the past. They are 7 spoke rims, but it looks like they have been converted to have adjustable hei...

Re: Fordson F help
Thanks Dave, That is our intention. Just want to do some tidying up jobs to make it run better and that will be it. It won't tick over properly at the moment as it always wants to rev up. There seems a lot of play in the throttle mechanism so that will be the first place to look. What plugs should i...

Re: Fordson F help
Hi Dave, Thanks for the reply. It has a mixer tap similar to the N we have, but is slightly a different design. You can see it on one of the photos. I have been told it has the wrong tank on as it should have had a separate petrol tank on but I do not know the old tractors well enough to be certain....

Re: Fordson F help
Hi,
I have tried to add some photo's but can't seem to work it out.
As it is a cork tractor should it have 2 fuel fillers on the tank?
the tank that is fitted is stamped Henry Ford and sons Cork Ireland.

Fordson F help
Hi, Have just acquired a F to add to the other blue and orange Fordsons in the collection, but I do not know a lot about them. I have looked above the manifold and can more or less make out the SN 171583. The last digit might not be 100% but will not alter the date I guess. I was told on the sale fi...

Hi, Had the old girl running sweetly today. The problem when we eventually found it was the seat at the bottom of the mixture needle. The seat was set very low in the float chamber that was on. When the chamber was changed for one of the spares I had, she was straight of choke. Thanks for all the help
