[ducksjunk]

I need a starter for a TE 20 Ferguson. Engine by Standard Motor Co.
6 volt/ 12 volt, whatever I can get. OR a starter drive/drive gear for the original lucas 6volt starter.
Thanks
Richard.

Call Sparex Inc. 1-800-443-6472 and ask for a dealer nearest you, they may have something, I know they are carrying parts for that engine.

hmmmm....

this one should fit? little pricy. but it's the only one I could find.

the tractor was made in England for export, so that may be a sorce also.

The TE were the english mainland tractors.. the TO series were the export models. TE means tractor england.. and TO means tractor overseas.. which is us.. america.. etc.

Still.. should fit.. etc.

He could also try restoration supply

Lots of antique tractor parts. HEck.. a MF dealer will probably fix him up too. A buddy of mine has a T0-20.. and gets most of his parts at a local MF dealer.

Thanks Ronnie ! that's the closest I've come so far.
It will certainly be a little pricey by the time i get it shipped to Canada, but I might have to bite the bullet.

A TE had a Standard Motors Gas, or diesel, the TO had a Continental gas, the TO35 had a Continental gas or a Standard Motors Diesel, and were built in Detroit, the Detroit built tractors had a Delco starter

No wonder I stick to fords mostly. All their early stuff is 1 model / 1 motor, and even subsequesnt models in the same line shared major components. nothing like having umpteen different engine configurations to really make parts finding heck on owners way down the road...

Kinda remids me of the early orphan tractors that used all off the shelf engines and modular components readilly available inthe early 1900's when fabbing tractors.. now tracking all that stuff down is like chaseing ghosts /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

As an afterthough.. i wonder if his starter is not rebuildable? The starter on my NAA was nearly completely gutted. brush holders and field were gone.. only thing that was reused was the case and comutator after a good amount of lathe work on it. Between the new fields brush holder,brushes, drive mechanism, bearing and bushing, and a shiny coat of paint it was still 80$ and 2 day turn around from a local mom-n-pop shop.

Richard,
I hope it works, and I feel your pain. I have a TO 20 and it's a great tractor, but because of her age she's getting harder to find parts for. That's what prompted me to buy a new tractor and give the old girl a rest.
