I think I'd pull some shenanigans with the tractor, intercept the ignition feed with a hidden 3 pole switch (may be keyed) 3 pole meaning a or b is on. A would be the ignition b would be horn, siren or strobe or all 3. Park tractor and flip hidden switch when bubba comes calling and doesn't flip ye olde switch instead of ignition he gets a sound and light show, at what point he usually leaves the area. If you really want to get fancy put your alarm on a timer with a separate feed so the unauthorized attempt to start gives him 5 minutes of sound and lights. Another idea is to intercept the ignition circuit with a momentary action normally open switch that you have to push to get ignition, but wire another feed through an oil pressure switch so you hold the momentary action switch to start it but if you let go before the oil pressure comes up it stalls. Let your imagination run free just wire something into the tractor that is not normal it won't stop them but might make them decide to go elsewhere. I worked at a new car dealer for a little over a year, one of the F&I guys came to me one afternoon said he was busy and asked if I would hop in the Cougar XR-7 out front, it was a lease turn in and he needed it pulled behind the fence and parked on the transit line. I took the keys,hopped in the car stuck the key in the ignition cranked it and nothing happened, HMMMMM? Looked and there was a sticker on the window protected by a sentry alarm, I thought a bit put my foot on the brake and hit the key and it started, seems the starter was wired through the brake lights. Later that day the F&I guy admitted to me he had been unable to get it to start.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
