My 9n is propane converted. Not an issue I have a tank and a wet line and got a crash course when I bought it as to how to fill the tank and not do anything dumb.
But, my tank is on the grill (100 gal tank) and it was brought over on the Mayflower. Unfortunately, the tank is leaking when its on or off from the valve where you turn the gas on or off. It has a weird type plug in that goes into the valve - much unlike a modern tank which is a ton easier to fill. This one fills from a separate valve than the outgoing line and has a hard to reach and twist release down on the side (not the screw type the new tanks have) I have the distinct feeling if I bring it in theyre going to tell me they cant fix that or that its outdated and no longer serviceable. Im ok with that, Im happy to buy a modern tank. I am, however, stuck on how to repair this? This outgoing line that goes to the vaporizer goes into the valve not like a modern tank. Can I convert this set up to a modern tank? How do I find out what size regulator it requires? Most of the lines Ive checked out are for grills and I have the idea that a 30 psi isnt going to be enough to fuel a tractor. Not sure where to even start on finding correct parts here. Im mechanically inclined enough to understand how it works basically.
Other consideration here is sometimes it gets doggy and will stall, mostly in the higher gears (3rd) and will stall if you put it into road gears on the aux even in first. This leads me to think its either flooding or starving but Im not sure which - guess is fuel starved. But I dont know how to adjust any of this crap and I dont know anyone who does either. I prefer to keep it propane converted because it runs clean (spark plugs and oil are pristine) and cheap. Thanks in advance.

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
