Hello to all. New to the fourm. Not new to antique tractors all tractors equipment and things. About 25 years ago dad and I picked up a Massey Harris 44 he used it at the local fair or tractor show pulled it about once a year. First gear down the track pretty much stock. A lot of second and third places with the old 44. Had a problem with the starter turned the motor over then would kick out finally decided it was time to take it to the local old feller and have it reworked. Yes we have converted it over to 12 V and of course ole boy said that Them starters Are not designed for 12 V which is true. The part that broke he replaced on the Bendix Drive and wanted to know if there's a possibility that we had possibly gotten water on top the pistons to create hydraulic lock because that's the only way in his opinion that the sheer pins on the starter or keyway had broke. No water on top the Pistons everything's good because he said pull the plugs roll the motor over just to check which I did. Might as well do a compression test wow wow 175 psi on each cylinder no wonder starter is going bad I'd say this tractor is good
