The engine was acting up the same before the addition of the electronic ignition. I believe polarity is correct but will double check. The coil is the one I bought when changing the points, distributor cap and rotor, so it may be the wrong coil for electronic ignition. I checked the timing yesterday...

Electronic ignition, so no condenser. Also, I got to thinking again about the warped cylinder scenario. If the engine quit due to expansion from a warped cylinder, it would bog down and kill the engine due to tightening up of a piston or pistons. If that was the case, you would not be able to immedi...

Lavoy,
No, nothing changed. With engine running, coil input is showing 8.66 volts.

Thanks Stan. I used it quite a bit when I first got it 9 years ago, with no problems. Just recently sold all the other 1010s I had but kept this one due to it having the six way blade. The temp. gauge works fine and it's not gone over 180 so I don't see this as an internal over heating problem. My t...

No baffle. Never had one as long as I've had it. Do you think that might be the problem?
Thanks

Stan,
Sorry, I've not heard of a warped cylinder. The head was crowned in the middle but that was ground. Any fix to a warped cylinder?
Thanks,
Martin

Hello all, Been a while since I was on here. I recently brought back to life an 1010 gas dozer of mine that had been sitting for 9 years. Without a lot of trouble got it running and it seemed to be okay for a couple of hours. Then it started to run poorly. Through investigation found a warped head a...

Thanks Lavoy.

Hey guys, I just came across a machine advertised as a 1010 but it's a 4 roller with no reverser. The gear-a-matic winch attaches with a factory made mounting housing which is totally different than the machine I already have that mounts direct to the rear end. It's a gasser and looks just like the ...

I doubled up the battery on my 1010 and it spins over much better and longer. A real help when the temp goes down. Series wiring of course.

I just found the company info. on the winch line I put on my 1010 winch back in October of 08. It was 5/8" by 100' Amsteel Blue with a 5/8" Crosby Solid Thimble braided into one end. I bought it from Peak Trading Corp at 43 Basin Road, West Hurley, NY, 12491 Phone 845-338-1325. Yes, a lot of money b...

Because of the diameter increase due to the line being woven back into itself, at the end where it attaches to the non-crush eye, I had some heavy wall 2" pipe, 2" long, with 1/2" wall, machined to slide over the splice and not bind up. I then welded an eye on the side of the pipe and then put the s...

Paul, Yea, that's the stuff. 100 feet was about $400 but it's worth much more than that when you're out in the brush pulling it back to a hitch of logs. No coiling up on you like steel cable. When working at the top of a ravine just take the non-crush eye, I had braided into the end, and fling it do...

I got a winch, presently on a 1010, of course which is the predecessor to the 350. It might mount up, not sure.

In 1982 or 83 I made up an adapter spacer out of some 1" plate and mounted a manual winch from a Case 350 to my 1010. Just left about 4" of space in between and put #80 sprocket on the winch input shaft and another on the pto output shaft. Put some roller chain around both and never had a problem. W...
