I got my H set up original, only I switched to a negative ground and polarized the generater to charge the other way. My amp guage reads backward since I didn't switch the wires around on it. I am the only one that drives it so if it shows a discharge I know that it is OK. You just have to read it backwards becuase the system is now polarized backward. A guy told me to switch the wires on coil around as well. I have not done this. He said that damage would eventually be done to coil but I have run it along time without switching it and I have had no problems yet. I didn't know that it would make a difference in your spark. The tractor has always seem to run OK and it seems to start right up all the time. The old 6 volt system sometimes just don't have the juice to turn the tractor over. If that happens it will usually start right up with the crank. If there is enough juice for the battery to turn the engine over it starts right up as well. I will probably switch the coil wires around just to be safe. As for crank placement, on H's, M's, and F-20's the gap between engine and tractor frame is to great to place crank between the two. Maybe I don't understand how you wedged it in there so that it would stay during a day in the field. I have only lost one crank and that was becuase I left it on tractor after I started it and drove it. It fell off and was lost. I have never lost one when it was placed where I keep them. I just would like to know if I am placing the crank where it was intended when tractor came from factory. There must have been a designated spot since it was removable after tractor was started.
