Broken Lift Control Plate on Ferguson TO-20 - How to Remove? (Cross-Posting)
That is a bugger if you want to save the original aluminum part but, you are replacing it. I used Blaster and soaked the internal part as best I could for a few days.

Corrosion control after cleaning
Showcrop, I don't have access to a parts cleaner, is there a solvent in a can as convenient as the spray can Break cleaner? I did buy a gallon can of the carburetor cleaner with the parts basket and that worked pretty good as long as I could fit the parts in the can. I do also use Blaster and... -

1948 8N rebuild progress
I am sure you have this covered but maybe I can save you a headache by sharing that the first time I worked on this pump I missed this Shop Manual Note: "The pistons on the scotch yokes are off center.

I Defected
Technically it is not defection if you are still driving a tractor. Moving to town to live in an independent/assisted living facility, now that is defection. For me I hope that day never comes.- Btzj02
