I know nothing about the products from the suppliers you show. I was hesitant to replace my sediment bowl as the replacement I bought was slightly different. It also had a plastic bowl instead of glass but my glass one fit. Now I have a nice new fuel tap that is not quite "correct" and leaks just as...

It was late when I posted the first message. I should have used the word "rent" instead of "borrow".

E27N tailight

I would like to buy a complete tail light for an E27N (1950 if there is a difference). I need it for the Easter weekend. I would borrow a unit if someone is so inclined. It will come home painted and detailed for a show. Not much time left so it will probably have to come out of western Canada. Anyo...

still wiring the E27N

I am to the headlight stage now. The owners manual wiring diagram shows a ground wire from the side light and headlight sockets to the headlight body. I cannot find a place to attach that ground wire. Did it come outside the lamp and attach to the mounting bolt, all the way back to the dash??? One o...

Re: E27N Ammeter & Electrical Questions

I only found out today that there are two boxes. Mine is the rectangular one. Are the mounting clamps and bracket that hold the box to the steering column black also? I was cleaning up the horn today which still has a lot of black on it but I found traces of blue. I am thinking it must have been bla...

E27N ammeter and electrical questions.

My gauge was good but the face was sunburnt. I took it to a stationary shop and he made a decal that looks exactly like my original but all shiny and bright. He made two so if you need one pm me. I found gloss black paint inside the dash box so I am assuming the outside was the same. What colour sho...

I am not from a Ford background so I am not sure which tractor is the E1A. Since they are all called Fordson Majors to me an E27N would be unstyled and the later ones styled. I saw photos of a County crawler. The sheet metal is styled but there is a shot from the rear and the differential housing an...

I am making one tractor out of #'s 1146317 and 1146299. Very close numbers, perhaps came over on the boat together. I have a photo to post of the bleached/unbleached parts of the wheel. This forum is not idiotproof enough for me. Can anyone tell me how to post a pic? When I hit "img" it asked for a ...

E27N restoration questions

I am redoing an E27N and will have many questions but here are some for a start. I never saw an E27N in the field but have been around the Majors that came later. I took wheel weights off today and the unbleached paint looks to be more orange than I remember. There is no info here on E27Ns is the pa...
