If they got changed when the oil got changed they were doing pretty well. Most got changed seasonally at best. I've bought a couple of older vehicles and tractors and the first thing I did was all the maintenance work that appeared to have been neglected for years (decades?). The worst being a 350 Farmall that dirt up to the wire mesh filter.

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep.
