Gezz my bad luck with the Farmalls just keeps on going. First was my SC carb full of white gunk after sitting for a year, waiting for the tractor dealer to get the right carb kit for it. Bought a SA from my dad yesterday, great running tractor, sometime in last 10 years before he bought it, it had an engine rebuild and converted to 12 volt, front factory blade, homemade 3 point hitch, great price. Was driving it home, running nice and smooth then it just quit running, no notice or sign at all. Wife was following me in the mini van so tried boosting tractor, no go. Checked to see if battery cables were tight, live was tight, tried ground and burnt my fingers, a couple nice little blisters today. Was getting to 5:30 so had to get it home off road before dark, had a tow chain in the van so just towed it home at about 5mph. Haven't had much time to trouble shoot it yet but looks like no fire at the plugs. That ground cable being so hot kind of concerned me. Anybody have any ideas where to start testing from? it does have a ballest resistor on it, how do you test them to see if power going across it? Anyways any ideas where to start testing the electrical system, what order? I do like them Farmalls but they starting to try my nerves. Thanks for any ideas
