OK Larry, lets take a hypothetical situation. Let's assume that my friend with the bad battery had an identical battery in his shed and it had the same volt values under the same test load conditions. If we connect it to the other battery in series, I think we would both agree that the air compressor would start. If we connect it parallel, what would happen? We now have double the available amperage but the same voltage. I would guess the air compressor might start because the voltage in the weak batteries wouldn't suffer as much of a voltage or pressure drop. The required consumption of watts by the starter would be satisfied. So, we can artifically double the amps or volts and get results. A partially discharged battery is restored to fully charged by raising its voltage. When the volts are not there and the amps are trying to make up the difference, where is the deficiency? It seems like volts. It also seems like amp values are still there or have increased to make up the voltage shortfall.

Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
