: I have a Ford 2000, 4cyl, gas
: I want to convert to 12 volt, don't know where to start.
: Thanks for all replys.

If you want to keep it looking original you can use the generator from a 801 series diesel. You would also need the voltage regulator from the same series.This way your wiring will all hook up with no changes. The coil will either need a resistor or be changed to one with a built in resistor. Your headlights will need to be changed to Ford #310062F. Depending on your rear light it will need to be changed too. Use a group 24 battery. It fits neatly where old 6 volt was. The starter does not need to be changed. The windings are heavier and will take the load. Also need to change wires on amp gauge from one side to the other so it will show charge correctly. You will be going from pos. ground to neg. ground. Good luck.

Today's Featured Article - Tuning-Up Your Tractor: Plugs & Compression Testing - by Curtis Von Fange. The engine seems to run rough. In the exhaust you can hear an occasion 'poofing' sound like somethings not firing on all cylinders. Under loaded conditions the tractor seems to lack power and it belches black smoke out of the exhaust. For some reason it just doesn't want to start up without cranking and cranking the starter. All these conditions can be signals that your unit is in need of a tune up. Ok, so what is involved in a tune up? You say, swap plugs and file the points....now tha ... [Read Article]
