Hey Y'all! Before I get to the question I have, I'd just like to take a moment to sound a hurrah for the stuff posted on this board, even when it goes slightly beyond, "What's wrong with my tractor?" I don't think I have seen a larger group of fairly level headed and humorous folks on a discussion board. Nice place to come to. The question I have is this. Is there an easy or "down and dirty" way to check the coil on my system for good operation without a dwell meter? I have the Farmall A model and have gone through the carburetor issues, cleaned out the radiator (thought it was overheating) and the unit still starts great, then runs for up to about 20 minutes, then starts to stall out like it is getting too much gas. Without access to searching the archives, I have to ask this here. I saw a few mentions on this, though all were related to M models or 450's or some other number. I know that they are all tractors and there is most likely some general correlation. I also know what happens when you make an assumption, so if anyone knows of a quick "down on the farm" method for checking a coil's operation, I would love to hear it.

The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
