  That&apos;s a spring tooth harrow, not a cultivator. The primary purpose &nbsp;of a &quot;Cultivator&quot; is to destroy weeds between crop rows by tearing them out or uprooting them, reducing the need for chemical herbicides. A harrow is a whole different story meant to break up the &nbsp;the ground after the initial tillage of the top growth (sod). &nbsp;Where&apos;s your sediment bowl? Ford provided you with a sediment bowl/ filter that has a thumb screw to open it for dumping out the water and clearing the debris, no need for tools.

  Put warter in the back tires or put wheel weights on the rims!

  Hello Larry; After watching your 8N for a few videos, I would say that your gas tank has a bunch of rust and crud in the bottom of the tank. <br>Usually if you take off the tank and get a bunch of gravel or a large amount of nuts &amp; small bolts and really shake the tank around to dislodge the rust and crud, Then give the tank a good flush out with Dawn Dish Soap and hot water will help tremendously. <br>If your tractor has the fuel shutoff valve and glass sediment bowl, I would say that the shutoff valve is completely full of crud only allowing enough fuel for the tractor to run when the fuel filter is not stopped up. <br>A lot of the fuel shutoff valves with the Ford tractors included, When you unscrew the valve from out of the tank will actually have a reed looking screen made into the fuel valve/fuel shutoff that sticks up into the tank which extends up from the bottom of the tank. Sometimes that reed filter screen will totally collapse and restrict the flow of fuel. Also the reed filter is utilized to not allow the fuel from the very bottom of the tank to flow through the valve while letting the fresher fuel to flow. At least with the older Ford tractors like the N series tractors, TSC keeps a fair amount of stuff in stock. &nbsp;Hope this helps you out,Larry.

  A tandem disk works better for smoothing and leveling, an offset disk is for heavy tillage. A spring tooth harrow tends to make clumps of weeds and grass.

  The old tractors I’ve had in the past I’ve had to jet wash (and then weld 😂) the insides of the fuel tanks due to huge build up of silt

  If you love farming life, don&apos;t buy Chinese. The CCP has a plan to remove you from your farm and relocate you to a high rise apartment building, raze all the buildings on your farm to return it to food growing. When you buy anything made in China, the profits go to the CCP, they own everything. Please think about their 100 year plan to own everything and don&apos;t willfully give them the capital to do it.

  It really seems a shame to simply leave the tools necessary to provide a living for any farmer out in the brush to rust and rot away over time. I could never understand that. I’ve been able to buy equipment - including a Badly rusted M-8 Tractor for very little ($) clean them up and put all equipment to work. Farmers should build a large barm in order to protect their equipment from the rains, the snow and whatever nature can inflict on expensive farming equipment.
