Stan: I used to buy resistors, small ohn lamps and diodes for my 12 volt conversions. I had sooo0 much trouble with that, always running buying new pieces, I gave up. I went to CaseIH got 12 volt coil not requiring external resistor, and I have a push button on dash to excite the alternator. My first conversion was 130 to 12 volt, seemed like every month I was buying something new. My second conversion was a 6 volt alternator on SA. Didn't need to change the coil or install a resistor. No one could tell me what to use for lamp or diodes, thus I did that one push button for exciting alternator. Within a year I changed the 130 to push button excite. that was 1992-93 and they have been trouble free ever since, with the exception of the time a trucker hauling these tractors left 130 switch on with a new 720 cranking amp battery. I think the harness was bad and that cooked everything including amp gauge. When it came to 140, it was 12 volt coil from CaseIH and the push button for excite. No need of these old tractors breaking down in the field, wont start in morning, etc. I thought one has to spend a $100,000. for a tractor you can count on not being reliable.
