That tractor is supposed to be a positive ground, not negetave. that would mess up the amp meter. And those resistors can be a problem. For years ran our 44 2N, same engine and wiring setup on ignation, on 8 volt because was hard starting to get the extra voltage to points. Never had points burning. The 8 volt with resistor will give about the same voltage as a 6 volt without. Mine got so it would die and not restart the same day, Several different switches, no change, don't think any were bad. I first wired a seperate switch in system and went thru the resistor, that way I could go from one switch to a different one to tell if it was a bad switch, no change in starting or running. I finlay added a third switch in wiring but bypassed the resistor, starts better that it ever did with the 8 volt battery (that I could not get again when I needed a battery), I still have those other switches in system and if I turn one of them on with tractor running good and turn the switch without resistor off the tractor will start to act up and die, if before it dies I turn the switch without resistor back on it takes off and runs fine. I have no problems with burnt points. And as for burning points without a resistor if that would be a problem how would a 6 volt either John Deere or Farmall with battery ignation and no resisters ever in system run for years without ever burning points and that was heavy all day after day work? And I know there were no resistors in those systems as we installed them converting from mags.

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Profile: Farmall M - by Staff. H so that mountable implements were interchaneable. The Farmall M was most popular with large-acreage row-crop farmers. It was powered by either a high-compression gas engine or a distillate version with lower compression. Options included the Lift-All hydraulic system, a belt pulley, PTO, rubber tires, starter, lights and a swinging drawbar. It could be ordered in the high-crop, wide-front or tricycle configurations. The high-crop version was called a Model MV.
