I had a tandem load of rock hauled in and dumped a couple of weeks ago for my driveway. I dumped some of it the worst parts so we could get thru until it dried and settled some. My plan was to finish spreading it yesterday. Tried to start the Farmall 400 with the loader, nothing. Figured the battery was dead, so I put the charger on it and worked on the planter and a few other projects for a couple of hours. I tried to start it again, no go. Tried to short across the solenoid, just sparks, so the starter came off. Checking it over, I noticed a bolt jammed in the nose of the starter. Got it apart, and one bolt came out of the bendix and jambed it up. Took it apart, threads are stripped off the bolt. Called a friend with Farmalls to see if he had a used one laying around. He didn't. Started building my wife a flower planter out of a couple of pallets. Got to where I needed the jig saw to cut some notches in a board, can't find any blades for it. I'm getting cold, so it's time to quit. Came in and looked around on the internet, only place I could find one was on this site for about $36 plus shipping. Looks like I will give them some business. Worked all day and didn't get much accomplished, but I'm still tired! Chris

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
