    AC WD45 Compression Test

    Testing the compression on the Allis Chalmers WD45

    79fordblake said:

    It has a late model WD45 4 bolt front end on it.

      Testing the compression on the Allis Chalmers WD45

      79fordblake said:

      Thats a WD not a WD45. The WD has a small Zenith carb and the WD45 has a larger Marvel Schebler carb. Sounds like it needs a complete tuneup and carb kit...then go from there.

      Those two A's would make great restoration projects. I have seen way worse.

    • 1946 John Deere A slant dash Idle

      Got my pap's A running a little better. I did fix the high rpm after I took the video. It was running too rich on the high side.

      79fordblake said:

      @reeseholler92...they all make some noise but that one sounds a little excessive...valves prolly need to be tightened up a tad bit more. After overhaul and its been ran a while valves should be adjusted anyway and head re-torqued. I need to rebuild the transmission in my '48 A...I have all the be...

      79fordblake said:

      You gonna fix up this tractor? Sounds like it runs pretty good. For the carb the needle on flywheel side is idle mixture adjustment...needle on clutch side is load mixture adjustment. Sounds like it could use a valve adjustment.

      Finally getting a video of the old john deere and the progress on it.

      79fordblake said:

    john deere A

    can anyone guss the year of this tractor?i,m gussing 1950-51?

    79fordblake said:

    Mid 1950....early 1950 still had the "high and low" transmission.

    • 79fordblake said:

      @gwg1995, your not going to pull a wheelie with a stock A in 5th..4th..or 3rd. A stock late A only has 34HP. To be in pulling competition and have an A pull a wheelie in 5th you would need to spend probably 10,000 dollars in engine modifications. Still won't pull a wheelie in 5th.

      79fordblake said:

      Sounds like she runs pretty good. The way you were trying to start it is just killing you though...it way to hard on you and it won't make it start any better. Slowly bring it up to compression and let it bleed off a little then give it a little tug spinning it. If you try to fight it the whole t...

      79fordblake said:

      @tommartyn, No problem at all man....glad I could help you out. The bearings I bought are holding up great, they got quite a few road miles on them now too. Its crazy they make a quality bearing but they get ya by not packing them good...tell everybody ya know so they can do the same to theirs lol.
