ClassicTractorProfessor 5,314 #1 Posted June 27, 2021 Had to make a run to town for some things this morning, and figured I’d stop off at a friends house if he was home to give him some money I owed him from a couple weeks ago for a Maytag 92. We ended up out in the barn looking at a couple more Maytags he bought this morning (which will probably be coming home with me soon), and then our talk turned to tractors. I’ve been eyeballing this 1942 SC for quite a while now, he noticed me looking it over again today and told me it would look better at my place than it did his, and since I’ve been dying for an excuse to use the trailer I bought a couple weeks ago, I wrote him a check and headed for home to get the trailer. Got it loaded up and back home just in time before another rain shower hit, so haven’t got a chance to unload it yet. It will run, but the carburetor needs some attention. Never considered myself much of a Case guy, but the adjustable wide front axle on this one and my DC was just too hard to walk away from 4 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClassicTractorProfessor 5,314 #3 Posted June 27, 2021 Yes they are…after a little tinkering (and a lot of cussing ) I was finally able to get it to stay running and off of the trailer…drove it over for a picture with its big brother, then pitted around the yard for just a few minutes before putting it up for the night 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClassicTractorProfessor 5,314 #7 Posted July 14, 2021 Update on the SC, rebuilt the carb and replaced the leaky sediment bowl on the 4th, now it will start with about 2 seconds on the starter. Replaced plugs and wires Saturday afternoon and she runs remarkably well now. Was going to do points as well but having a bit of trouble sourcing them for the non original Fairbanks Morse FMJ mag that is on this tractor. Need to do some rewiring and replace some non working gauges before September, planning on taking this one to the Threshing Bee in Fairview OK 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
