Hi. Almost done on my rewire job. When I opened up the harness around the starter and up front, everything was cracked and corroded and a mess of cut and unused wires so I replaced it all. Nothing like doing wiring in the cold, blowing rain.
Have a question though as my 2606 doesn't fit any schematic as it has a one wire alternator and a 3 position keyed ignition switch.
The wire from the coil went to the bottom small post of the starter solenoid and then a jumper to the key ignition switch. From another side of the key ignition switch a wire goes to one side of the push button and then continues on as 10 guage to the big hot battery cable post on the starter solenoid. Then there is a wire from the top small post of the starter solenoid to the other side of the push button.
I'm just wondering if there is a better way to do this circuit? As it is now, the push button is still live even with the key off. I'd like to make it for kids or someone who could bump the button while it is in gear.
For other information, the big 10 guage hot wire from the alternator goes to the positive side of the ammeter. The negative side of the ammeter is 10 guage down to the big starter solenoid post.
Further info is that I came off the 3rd leg of the key switch to a fuse and then to the headlight switch and cig lighter receptacle. I only have one wire going to the headlights but the first on position gives low beams, 2nd gives high beams, and third (not hooked up now) would add the rear light.
Another weird thing is that the spring jumper between the headlight and instrument light terminals on the back of the switch would smoke for a while after turning the lights on but it wouldn't blow the 30A fuse.

Today's Featured Article - The Cletrac General GG and the BF Avery A - A Bit of History - by Mike Ballash. This article is a summary of what I have gathered up from various sources on the Gletrac General GG and the B. F. Avery model A tractors. I am quite sure that most of it is accurate. The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
