Those two long studs that hold the rocker assembly on (they also hold the valve cover on)are also oilers. Not sure if you knew that? The grooves should be clocked to oil the assembly and valve train.

nice to see it running

[@podexperfectussum]

JT, on the antique tractors with a generator, if the generator housing is the same diameter all the way back, it's 6V. If it necks down at the back, it's 12V. All generator tractors are positive ground.

[@karlfischer1011]

not all 12v , but many. 1960s tractors are more likely to be Neg Ground, even with a generator. We have a ford 5000, 12v negative ground is specified in the manual. I believe an IH 706 is also specified neg ground, the 56 series with a generator is neg ground (in preparation for the alternator on later production of that series). another 12 v indicator on a delco generator and starter is the delco tag's color: red is 12 v, black is 6v. 50-70 years of life could mean a 12 field coil replacement or frankenstein parts, however.

Excellent video JT :) glad got all parts in this old Canada made Cockshutt 40 tractor your 9 person I seen have in 12 volt Negative ground also 12 volt battery on , one home farm I grew up on had 6 volt positive ground my late Uncle Bill own plus late Dad with also did you have fuel tap on underneath tank facing to transmission and think you did but no sure! Also muffler be changed to new and make sound like gas motor Farmall too purring like cat Lol ! JT yes CHEERS to success and that tractor sounds like ready to work on farm to for hours! Also RPM on low is 450 and top High idle surprises is 1750 from factory but 2000 it make run for sure! Yes Zenith carbs on farm tractor or combines gas motors stay super and do stay clean it amazing for sure 👍 ! That tractor sure bring memories back from my childhood years in 1976 to 1994 lots farmers love those tractors and Cockshutt good brand to bad not in business no more also yes NAPA Auto parts store get part for electronics also Generator are Delco Remy type and so Starter drive but Starter Solilendo near dash is Ford brand if want know!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thanks for the info! Certainly is a cool old tractor, I’ll bet in its day it was one of the more powerful ones with the big 6 under the hood!

@@jtsbarnngrill6873 yes lots in pulling contest on sled weights to for sure and one my late grandfather Bill SR bought new 1950 in Brampton Ontario plant made it also in 1970 my Late Uncle Bill took 3 fairs near homestead farm and doing pulling weight contest also run belt drive fairwheel to till 1992! Yes these tractor with all four wheels with weights from factory ordered in pull and seen good do ! My late Uncle Roy in 1988 had his 1986 Massey Ferguson 235 Loader Desiel fuel motor 2 wheel drive stuck in farm wood and that 1950 Cockshutt 40 with Buta 230 Cubic Inches 6 cylinder motor plus been 6 volt positive ground pull chain tight also tugged out no problem in 4 gear and high RPM full throttle ! Was Mud flying to in air too and mess to on tractor after! But yes JT those tractor for 43 hp also 60 to 90 torque like 100 hp with 150 torque tractor in Desiel but Cockshutt Gas ! Yes should get on Google Search for 1950 Cockshutt COOP 40 Deluxe say on motor used plus specs on them because used Cockshutt used Dodge one plus Desiel motors to ! How my Grandfather Bill SR new about Buta Motor was his brother in Law plus nephew was in Army a Canadian made tank used motor in them Buta type and brother in law was mechanic by trade and nephew drive tank too back years ago! Plus first Cockshutt 35 Loader tractor gas had Buta Motor in too it was 1948 model same size everything on specs I heard and never saw tractor was gone before I born ! I just remembered 40 and pop up front wheels on move it around with my uncle teach me drive it on hill roads to Lol!

[@AndrewHCann]

Also heard rumor years ago about 40 that Buta motor like was like driving a GM 292 6 cylinders or 300 6 cylinders Ford or Slant 6 of the 170 or 225 Dodge put out for hp and torque specs! I think rumor true because in my Auto Mechanics and Restoration work over 30 years as my job plus driving 3 motors in test on vechiles out after repairs to Lol!

[@ralphnorris-vk8ff]
