KED: Go for an alternator, why pay 3 times the dollars to have it look correct, only to have a poor source of charging. I converted my SA and 130 close to 20 years ago, did my 140 when I got it 6 years ago. Virtually trouble free since. I took my 1963 140 out on a commercial cultivating job this summer, ran 50 hours of grueling 2nd gear work with no interuption other than operator needing sleep and food. Takes me back to the 1970s when I ran 7 relatively new tractors on the farm.

Gone are the days of dead batteries, gone are the days of a basket full of non working voltage regulators, even my use of replacement ignition parts are less, my tractors work better and I don't even carry the cranks anymore. Now, I credit the crank issue to the clutch type starter drive, no more locked starters, but then also gone is the dead battery after you get starter unlocked. I have better lights, basically those two items took away all the annoyance of having an old tractor. I can run and compete with the new sub-compacts any day.

My friend, treat yourself to a new like tractor at yesterday's prices. Here is a photo of my alternator mount, go to Bob M for wiring diagrams.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
