I'm looking at a Ford Heavy Industrial tractor. The guy who recently painted it (it's now all yellow) thought it was red on the engine before it was painted yellow years ago. As best I could read the serial and model numbers (rear and above the starter) they are: top number = 1341-D-S, and bottom # 60046 with a diamond on either end. It's a four cyl. deisel with the heavy cast front grill.
The guy who's selling it (around $3700) with loader fixed it all up for his Dad; went through the hydraulics - new hoses, rebuilt pump, etc, upgraded the electical to alternator, 12V, etc, all new tires, paint, seat. There's about a ton of weight hung on the rear as ballast, but done right. When he got it done dad said keep it. The power steering was the cable type but was changed to hydraulic. The tractor has a rear PTO and the three point attaching points, but no arms.
He also worked on the engine (new head, one piston and ring)and checked the clutch, etc and installed an ether shot for starting as well as a block heater. He changed the filters to spin on type.
What I really want to know is what model and year it is. I'll probably buy it although I have a skid steer and really don't need it.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
