I've got an 8n that I just got going and the clutch keeps getting stuck. I'm wondering if theres anything I can spray on it to stop it. I'm hoping it will stop on its own but I dont know.
When I got it the clutch was stuck. I split the tractor and got it loose (maybe I should have pulled it and had a look at it but I wasn't expecting it to be a problem). Put the tractor together and finished and it was stuck again. If I start it in 4th with the clutch in it will break loose so it's not sticking bad but it happens every time I park it over night. I'm afraid if I leave it for a month it might really get stuck.
Has anyone ever ran into this and if so how did you stop it?
I'm really hoping there's an easy fix for this. I really dont want to pull this back apart to fix the clutch just because it's sticking.
If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks :)
John

Hate to say it but the splined shaft may be bent from a previous event.

Common problem with the N tractors especially if they are left outside, the cure is to block the clutch pedal down when not in use.
