  1. This is wrong place to ask However I am starting to restore/ rebuild a Farmall M. Your videos are helping build my confidence to take on this adventure. You mention a thread sealant for bolts that have open bolt holes. If you have stated what the sealant is I missed so please tell what the sealant is. Thanks, Happy New Year

  2. A right on time episode, Toby. I'm planning on pulling my "Plain Jane Carburetor" off my H in January for some much needed rehab. I'll be following your next episodes very closely! Thanks!

  3. When you were talking about the overflow drain and this carburetor, I was thinking about how that was the signal that Old Emma was ready to start when I was hand cranking her. As soon as I saw that drip, it was time to open the choke and get ready to hear her hit and go. I can still hear her hit the first 2 or 3 licks and take off. It's been at least 40 years since I last heard her start up other than in my memory.

  4. One of my “Special” non special tools when working on carbs is a muffin tin.
    The pocket are great for “compartmentalizing areas of the carb on tear down. Will save hours of search time for the detent or on some pump check ball that some how go from 0 to 60 off the bench.
    Another favorite is the “tuner” sprays from outboard mfgs. For delicate brass parts and jets. Throw everything in the bowl cover with the spray and soak. Overnite works best.

  5. Was it more common to see this style carburetor on the distillate fueled tractors? Our old H distillate had this one,

    is this the Zenith carburetor ?

    whereas the gasoline versions often were fitted with Marvel scheblers?

  6. So, if memory serves me correctly, the W4 should be the same carburetor? The super might be a little larger but should be pretty close. I tried to clean up our W4 carburetor but everything leaked. Can’t wait for the re-assembly and tuning videos.

  7. I had to rebuild my great grandfather’s F12 carb and I didn’t want to buy a kit and the packings were junk so I went to menards and they sold graphite and Teflon placking stock there and seems to work great

  8. While i don't particularly enjoy rebuilding them, i do like to tinker with them. Polished passages, bigger blades, profile cuts. I've actually improved a number of them. I've also fritzed a number of them too, one would be surprised just how on the edge between just right and no longer working some of these older carbs are. They really did a good job on them.

  9. Toby, a few weeks ago, you were telling me that the gas tank was clean inside, which I do believe, but I guess what I was asking is what kind of fuel will you be running in the tractors? For this pump gas, ethanol, tends to cause rust inside metal tanks when they sit for periods of time. Don't mean to be a pain in the back side.

  10. Old carburetors are great fun to rebuild. It has been my experience that a critical part of restoring is the shafts and bushings that operate the butterflies. I doubt this application would be impacted as much, but I've seen very, very little wear in those bushings cause issues to the point it was nearly impossible to get the proper stoichiometric setup.

  11. Fussy stuff that needs to be done. If you don't do it when you have the chance it will always come back and haunt you. I have done it many times. Carburetors do not fall under the rule "If it ain"t broke don't fix it". If if it runs good, fix it anyway. Even if it is just a good cleaning. It will save a lot of grief in the long run. Thanks for another great video. Happy New Year.

  12. I have swallowed both choke plate screws and had them banging betwixt the piston and head. Fortunately it was a Ford 2.3 4 cylinder, which was very bulletproof. Ran it for years without seeing the pistons. Learned to always stake (or at least bugger) those threads.

  13. So if you gotta be in the mood for something small because you like big projects….does that mean you are getting ready to tackle “Ol’ Christine”?

    Or will that just make that poor eye twitch a little too hard?

  14. I don't know I'm due to making it authentic using the original carburetor is a good idea but I guess if it was me I would just go and buy a marcuni carburetor from go power sports Cause carburetors are a pain in the butt to work on. have a great day
