    MF-50 tire size

    We have an MF-50 in desperate need of new rear tires. What's on there now are 14.9-24 on 13" wide rims. They don't look correct so I thought about getting 13.6-24, but since we have a set of chains for plowing, should I be worried about how well the chains will fit, and how much traction might...

Usually, adding fluid (there are a couple leaky hoses) seems to fix it, but it's been worse lately. I would like to drain the fluid and change the filter. Has anyone here done...

The YTmag store doesn't have one for the gas engine for the...

    MF-50 timing

We noticed that the distributor is loose; it rotates pretty easily (but not quite freely). There seems to be a clamp...

    MF 50 battery

    Hello, I'm wondering what kind of battery a 1958 MF 50 takes. It has the Z-134 engine. I'm not sure if the battery that came with it is the type it's supposed to have or not. Thanks! :)
