Sir I thank you so much for taking the time to spell out in such detail how to check out my electrical system. I followed your instructions to a T. All the readings you said I should get where spot on to what I got. My coil was good but had no fire at the points. I filed the points the other night with no results. Did what you said with the dollar bill. When I pulled it out there was a pop and big bright spark. Put the cap back on and nothing. At this point I noticed the rotter bug sitting on the hood. Uuuugh. Put it in and presto she fired right off. I loaded it right up on the trailer and hauled it out to our show in Republic MO. I will be putting new plugs and points condenser and such on when I bring it home. I have a no charge issue I will have to look into next. I amp gauge never shows to the + or - and the battery seems to discharge very fast. May have a short in the gen or points stuck in the regulator. That will be a project for another day. This old tractor has sat for a long time and it sure was good to hear it run again. I printed off your advice and put it in my manual for the tractor. Once again, thank you so much. Paul Shuler.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
