The Old Ford 8N Gets a Spin On Oil Filter

[@keithwarkentin]

Well that’s something that is pretty rare now a day’s that they would write a note and sign it! I wish those boys great success and you did a great job installing it! But I have to confess my favourite part of the video was when you said you plan on painting the old girl that pleases me so all the best 😀🇨🇦

[@xpsgarage]

It will probably be this fall but I am definitely painting it.

[@warrenparker6287]

@@xpsgaragecan you add the parts list in the comments for the replacement lines and stuff please. I’ve got the eBay information on the oil filter conversion

[@xpsgarage]

The lines are just 1/4" brake lines from the the local parts store. Just figure out how you want to route the lines and figure out the length.

[@annalorree]

I purchased the same unit, but haven’t gotten it out on yet, I’m using up my stock of canister filters before I do. Thanks for making this video!

[@xpsgarage]

You will like it. It looks good on there and is very well built.

[@nickgrebeldinger9302]

I have had one for about a year now & it really works well. I would highly recommend this product .

[@frederickwentz4729]

Unfortunately, these things are no longer available. I have searched the Internet and everything that comes up where they were being sold is now saying out of stock.

[@xpsgarage]

Did you message Maple Springs Farm through Ebay to see if he was going to get any more?

[@loganmcewen7423]

I messaged them about a week ago and they will have them in stock in the near future. They were just waiting on the part that the filter threads on to.

[@xpsgarage]

@@loganmcewen7423 That's good news. I hoped they hadn't stopped making them.

[@benkanobe7500]

You do VERY nice work!

[@xpsgarage]

Thanks!

[@williamtinlin9789]

I really enjoy your vids ! Great help for my 1951 8N 🙂

[@xpsgarage]

I'm glad they are helpful!

[@sargepent9815]

Outstanding. Will add this to my to-do list along with upgrades from points ignition to modern

[@xpsgarage]

I like the oil filter but haven't heard much good about replacing the points with electronic ignition.

[@benrandomly2016]

I have one too. His products are excellent.

[@xpsgarage]

Yes, I was very impressed.

[@timtimtim5294]

Great job, you do clean work!

[@xpsgarage]

Thank you!

[@Dragonsbrath]

Nice job. Reckon I won't change mine out because as you said the original works just fine. Nice video thsnks

[@jessedicks6720]

By chance do you have video and place where you got your alternator bracket from.

[@xpsgarage]

Here is the install video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6nClJx8mcZsqacsi=L9bIe4q79t1nxdP1 I picked up the alternator kit from Steiner Tractor.

@@xpsgarage TY VERY MUCH SIR

[@thomasinterian5537]

A little love to your tractor. Any will work much better?😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@javier.1980]

Be careful!!! The original filter base has a very small hole. It allows very little oil to pass to the governor. When you place that filter base you depressurize the entire engine oil line and too much oil goes to the governor. You must make the hole between the new filter base and the gibernator smaller. You must return to the measurement of the hole in the old filter holder base. My tractor has worn out the crankshaft because of that. Look at the old base, analyze and copy its oil passages.

[@xpsgarage]

The orifice is built in. Like I said, these guys did a great job building this adapter. 9:55

[@johnupchurch7685]

Looks good

[@jryc5566]

Nice work what brand is your pipe bender ,sealant and elbow

[@xpsgarage]

I bought the bender from Autozone. The sealant I was using was #2 Permatex. The 90 degree fitting was from my local autoparts and is just a 1/8" NPT to 1/4" inverted flare.

[@adilsoncardoso7650]

Parabéns maravilha mestre showwwwwwww

[@MrNytrosdad]

MADE IN AMERICA......MAGA!!! thank you for the video..

[@realmongo7565]

I bought the same kit, but have not installed it yet.

[@xpsgarage]

I think you will like it.

[@grimacres]

This is awesome.

[@xpsgarage]

Thanks!

[@martiegravitt7158]

Any problems with it so far? Maintaining good flow and pressure?

[@xpsgarage]

No problems at all. I've got about 30 hours on the tractor since the install.

[@ThinkingBiblically]

Since an 8N doesn't have a full flow filter, its hardly worth ti.

[@xpsgarage]

You are correct that it is probably not worth it from a filtering stand point, but dang it looks cool and I really needed new lines anyway.

[@byronstevens3790]

waste of time

[@xpsgarage]

I enjoyed doing it so it was not a waste of time.
