Ya got me. I'm only familiar with the 1-wire generator and cutout on Model Ts. :D

I am also only familiar with a 3-wire voltage regulator on 8Ns. Perhaps the 4th wire grounds it? That said, you really need to know...

That’s right! We did have the front piece to lift the whole tractor Your photo made me remember!

As John suggested, start with the top cover and check the piston. The factory piston had 3 steel rings. Rather than a ring job on it...

Sure it is. 8N hydraulics, when working properly, can lift ~800 pounds and it will lift all three implements you listed above. Parts...

Typical failing coil symptoms. While it is acting up, DO NOT wait for it to cool down, immediately pull a plug wire and check the spark...
