Question??

Postby jmont54 » Mon Dec 13, 2004 3:52 pm

Hello to all again:
Beside my Y&W Cub, I am in the process of restoring an IH B414. My question is this. Is the number one cylinder on all IH 4 cylinder motors the one in the front. I am setting up the engine and just want to be sure. I figure it is just like my Cub. I know the firing order is the same but want to be sure which is the number One cylinder.

Thanks to any one that can help.

The #1 cylinder is the fourth from the rear.

#1 cylinder

Postby Eugene » Tue Dec 14, 2004 1:15 am

No, no, no. You are all wrong. #1 cylinder location depends upon which side of the tractor you are standing. If you are standing on the left side of the engine it would be the cylinder on the left end of the engine. Standing on the right side of the tractor, the #1 cylinder would be on the right end of the engine.

Let me get it straight!!

Postby jmont54 » Tue Dec 14, 2004 9:39 am

Now I believe what the Experts are saying is that the NUMBER 1 cylinder is either the Front cylinder, Furthest cylinder to the left while standing on the left side facing the tractor or the furthest cylinder to the right while standing on the right side and facing the tractor. Soooooooooo! I am guessing that this must be the cylinder closest to the Radiator. HA! Ha!

Thanks one and all and everyone have a GREAT XMAS.

The furtherest one from the rear wheels.

The obvious answer here is: number 1 cylinder is the one that isn't number 2,3,or 4.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

Drain the oil, remove the oil pan and get under the tractor (don't worry if it's still running...it'll stop when the main bearings sieze). Find the #1 rod cap, and the #1 cylinder is right above it.
