I have a Massey-Harris 30 that I restored over the past nine months.Put it all back together and it started and ran fine.After taking it for a spin the other day I parked in the driveway and shut it down.When I went to start it,nothing.
When pushing the starter I can hear a faint spark either by the battery or the switch.I took the battery to get tested and it was holding a 6 volt charge but had no cranking amps,replaced with a new one.
Put in a new starter switch,had the starter tested, the generator was rebuilt,all new wires in the control panel test ok,battery cables test good, ground ok.
When I put the fully charged battery in and hit the starter,still nothing.Put the charger on again and it's totally drained.
Can't figure why it was running good and now DOA.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!!
