Farmall H Carburetor Struggles!

[@brycewiborg8095]

I will use the tip cleaner from the acetylene torch in the jet. I don't know how many times I watched Dad make a carburetor gasket from a shoe box. Than you Chris.

[@brycewiborg8095]

On that thought Dad would change oil in the spring. After he dropped the oil, but before he changed the filter he would dump kerosene in the crank case, but idle the engine for a while. I have found that process recommended in the 1939 operators manual.

Making a gasket from a cardboard box is a creative idea! I have heard of people putting kerosene in the transmission as a flush, but never heard of using it as an engine flush- it would probably work though. Thanks Bryce 🙂

Amazing how much 💩 gets in... Just as amazing, how a little cleaning up can make them run again 👍😁 Good job Chris 👍👍

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

I was surprised how much rusty crap had gotten in there. It was good to get her running again. Thank you Ed 🙂

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

@@dehavenfamilyfarm it is amazing how much 💩 can get into a carb

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin It sure was. The gas tank was dirtier than I thought- I'm sure glad I had cleaned it out!

[@gentlegiants1974]

First thing I would do is clean the little brass filter screen at the fuel inlet fitting... Just unscrew it and give it a blow.

[@SoybeanFarmer3300]

You got to be happy with that. Stupid rain cap rattle always an aggravation. 🙂🙏🙂

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Definitely happy I got it running again 🙂 That rain cap 🤦‍♂️ I hope you are doing well and thank you for stopping by!!

Farmall Fanatic....I think I’ve heard of him!😂 Nice looking carburetor! You probably already know this, but when you’re ready to rebuild yours Steiner Tractor offers rebuild kits. Nice running H Chris, I’d still love to own one for sentimental reasons. Good video sir!

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

A few people have 😉😁 Yes, he did a great job rebuilding that carb. Are the kits from Steiner any good? Some of the parts I have purchased from them are not the best quality. Thanks!!

[@AnglesideFarm]

@@dehavenfamilyfarm I’ve had good luck with Steiner, I’ve ordered body panels, seat assembly, electrical parts and carb rebuild kits with no disappointments so far.

[@onehappyfarmer3461]

Not much of a struggle on this episode. Lol

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Nope, wasn't too bad. But there is definitely some fun coming in future videos 😉😄

Definitely running better!! Thanks 🙂

[@brenterickson1695]

I don't even hardly use our H anymore but I can't bring myself to selling it.....We hook it up to the tedder or pull a wagon once in awhile to justify having it....They're great little tractors...Glad you got it back purring again, ready for the summer....Thanks Chris.

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

They are handy little tractors. Just keep finding things for it to do so you can keep it 😂 I'm glad she's running good again too. Thanks!!

[@Jason1Pa]

Wow that new carb made a world of difference!! I'm so glad you got it going! I agree it's always good to have extra parts!

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

It sure did! He did a great job rebuilding it. I'm glad she's running good again. Thanks! 🙂

[@TimBinns68]

I wish tractors ran on rust, but turns out they don't, lol

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

🤣 Nope, they sure don't! Thanks 🙂

[@HumbleHaymakers]

Excellent video - no shortage of parts out there for the Farmalls...👍

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

No there isn't- which is great because I have to keep buying them 😂 Thank you sir!!

[@RandWFarmstead-TonyWalsh]

Purrs like a kitten. Hope you have a blessed day Chris.

Thank you!!

[@jankotze1959]

Very nice Chris, this video make me want to start my Super A for the first time this year, I need to pull it out it's resting place to inflate the tires, think this might be my next video👍👍👍

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Thank you Jan 🙂 That is a great idea- I look forward to watching that video!!

[@ikonseesmrno7300]

The valve on the bowl is handy to have. Drain it out for repairs, drain it out if it's flooded. It's also possible to send a burp of air through there to dislodge crud in the fuel line. You can also add a valve to the side of the block behind the carb in case you need to drain out the coolant for a thermostat replacement, water pump work, etc. It also helps to keep coolant off the tractor & draining into a bucket if you have a hose on it. Regards!

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Thank you for the info- I might just do that! I appreciate you watching 🙂
