1941 M Electrical Problem - Bob M I need your HELP

Posted by BIG JOHN on November 17, 2005 at 13:49:16 from (207.200.116.203):

Sorry about this, I know that I ask this question before and I printed off your answer but now that I am back to this tractor I can't find the print out.

I have a 1941 "M" with a distributor that has been converted to 12V w/alternator, w/ballast resister ahead of the coil, NEG ground. The problem is that no juice goes to the points when the starter is cranking. As soon as you let up on the starter there is juice to the points. If it doesn't catch then it doesn't start. I have checked the following and everything checks out good, points, condenser, coil, resister. What am I missing?????

Also would you touch on the + & - connections on the coil and what is the correct installation.

THANKS
