Nice. Still too much snow on the ground and frost to even think about plowing over here. Dandy Dave!

Nice. Dandy Dave!

Say Brian, Did that Belgian have Orange feet and a Blue coat? Dandy Dave!

Did you have the Flywheel off? If so did you install it correctly? Dandy Dave!

The wires will run to the regulator, and then to the battery. Not sure on the colors. A photo of what you have would help. The big wire should be To D for Dynamo. Then you have a smaller wire that is marked "F", for Field and a wire that is marked "A", for Armature. These will be stamped in the Dyna...

King pins and bushes are also available from the land of nearly right. You will need an expandable reamer to fit the pins in the new bronze bushes. New Bearings and seals are also available. I rebuilt my front end a number of years ago on my Power Major. Dandy Dave!

I bought my Manual off of Ebay. I always like having hard copies for my equipment. Dandy Dave!

I've seen the screw type splitters in the past. Some of them bolted to the hub of a car, or light pickup/jeep rear end. They really worked well from what I could see. Not sure on really knotty stuff though. Dandy Dave!

If you are working on an E1A Major Diesel you should be posting in the New Major section. Dandy Dave!

Another round of Cold for us in the North East States. The estimate was -13F last night. Even in the south and west they are being affected. Dandy Dave!

Cecil sounds like a quite a character... Dandy Dave!

I can name the ones from the states here, Not sure on the others. Sometimes it is time to keep a few that one works on and keeps to show and enjoy. Let the rest go to a good home. Dandy Dave!

Nice! . Sweet sounding Tractor. Dandy Dave!

Wondered the same thing myself Super6954. I could tell it was a petrol just by the sound. Dandy Dave!

Yup. This is one year for Cold and snow back here in the States. Dandy Dave!

Yup. Seen that Before. Dandy Dave!

Sounds nice. You will have to see how she is under a load next. Just below the fuel filter, is that an Hour Meter? Dandy Dave!

Glad to hear it is doing what it is suppose to. Dandy Dave!

Nice Looking Petro. Yup. Agree with Pat on the Henry Ford Museum and Green Field Village. Well worth the Visit. I have an Invite to Display my 1915 Buick there in September this year for their Motor Muster. We will see as time gets closer. Dandy Dave!

That will do. Just be sure there are enough supplies to last a while. A full bar, cigars, and some dancing girls (Bikinis optional.) Will do. Dandy Dave!

I would suggest getting a factory Wiring diagram, or diagrams on a lot of new stuff. The amount of Wiring is maddening on modern stuff. Then start chasing the color codes to see what they go to. A Test Light and Multi Meter will be very helpful. Dandy Dave!

We had a hydraulic splitter when we were on the farm years back. Worked very good on the tractors we had. Did not have a Fordson Major at the time though. Don't see where it would be a problem as long as you have a DAR system installed. Or at least a return line. Dandy Dave!

I had the same problem with my Power Major. Like Brian says, It was a blocked tank valve. Drove me nuts as it was a piece of a leaf that would sometimes get sucked down, and other times float around. Dandy Dave!

Nice! Dandy Dave!

Double post...
