    Tractor speed

    Okay guys, one of you fine folks have solved the problem. I have ordered a GPS system and I'm good to go. Should have thought of that myself but I'm pretty sure I will be back next time a problem arises. Thanks again.

    Tractor speed

    Thanks for your generous offer. In fact I do have a tractor manual. I've had the machine for 24 years but don't use it too often anymore. I keep it in the shop on a battery tender and as you know I pretty much forget about it. It's been a great little tractor over the years and the only...

    Tractor speed

    This really hurts to admit that I gave the wrong info on tractor type. So here's the thing, I couldn't remember the name of the tractor so I had to asked my wife. Got that right. Then neither of us could remember the model. The YM 180 never seemed quite right but I have it parked in the...

    Wow, plenty of info here. I've printed it out and digest it when I get into this thing. Thanks to all.

    Tractor speed

    Com'on guys, you're giving me a headache. Okay, I have it figured out. I follow my wife in the car. Rods, rods? I haven't heard of that measurement since I was a kid. Too many years in the big city I guess.

    Tractor speed

    My thanks to all of you. I'm spraying a 10 acre pasture and you have given me enough ideas to get me on my way. Again thanks for your input.

    Tractor speed

    Thanks for the input Iman. At 86 I wouldn't know how to use a high tech machine like a speedo on a phone; or even a smart phone for that matter. But hey, It's a good idea anyhow, and I thank you for the input. So define my request a bit, can someone tell me how they figured out the speeds in...

    Tractor speed

    Hi guys, been a long time since I visited this site, as I finished my Allis project. Now I'm trying to find out what gear and rpm I use on my Yanmar YM3810 to attain 4 MPH.

    Smoking engine

    Recently got my 48 Allis up and going. Initially, it ran very well with no smoke. Now, upon starting, it runs clean but when it warms up it starts blowing blue smoke at idle. Smoke disappears at half throttle. I've cleaned the oil bath filter and found a mud dauber nest. Thinking this was...

    Slop in rear end when changing from rev to forward and back to rev

    I hope I can explain my situation well enough to be understood. I have a 48 Allis B that I have recently rebuilt, (mostly parts replaced), everything except the differential, which I know nothing about. When I start forward I get a definite slap in the rearend and the same when I start in...

    Rocker arm problem Allis B

    I've mounted my rocker arm assembly but the number four cylinder exhaust valve has not adjusted equally to the others, showing two more threads on the adjustment screw. The engine ran well initially but is sputtering intermittantly now. I have not isolated a cause for the rough running. When...

    RING GEAR R&R

    Bad ring gear on my Allis B. After splitting the tractor is it a shop job or can this be done without any special equipment?

    USED HEAD FOR 49 ALLIS C

    I have a used head for a 49 Allis C that is not needed or wanted. To my knowledge, it will also fit a B of similar vintage, though you would have to verify this.

    LEADED vs UNLEADED

    My 48 Allis has been restored. Now my final question: What type gas should be run in this old motor? 'Leaded gas negatives appear to be overstated while unleaded gas benefits appear to be understated'. This comment is taken from an article I read recently. I'd like to get some opinions from...

    Allis C - no over head lubrication

    Restoration nearly complete. I never rebuilt the engine but did clean the sump, oil-pick up screen, replaced filter, new oil pressure gauge. I am now getting great pressure at the gauge but nothing is coming to the top. I've run it for several minutes and I fear my oil passage is blocked some...
