 I finally managed to get back into the garage. It’s been a week. The first think I did was the usual tidy up. I am a city boy so I don’t have a large barn but a small garage to keep my tractor in. You can see the lack of space. Still I’m happy I have a space out of the weather to work on the tractor.

My Garage

I’ve got what I think is the last delivery of parts I’ll need to get the tractor up and running. It includes Front axle pin and bearing, clutch pilot bearing, clutch thrust bearing and tab washers to hold the fly wheel on. I  got them from 

Geoff Mathews Engineering a local tractor parts supplier. They didn’t take to long to get and the price was reasonable.

Final Parts

I’ve had to clean up the clutch and fly wheel they where covered in oil. I’ve given them the usual bath in degreaser. I think the clutch assembly is new as it is carrying an MF part number.

 I think the clutch plate has been recently added as there doesn’t look much wear on it. I’ve decided not to replace it. I think I can always replace it at a later date if need be.

I’m still not sure about the timing still need to check it. I also need to do the decompression settings for cylinders 1,2 and 4.
