Did the tractor EVER hold a charge? I had the same problem with my Super M and messed with it for far too long. Took it to my local mechanic and he put a new alternator on it and now it charges and runs perfectly. Like you, I always try to fix things myself, but when I'm over my head, I don't hesitate to go to someone who knows what he's doing and in the long run (after taking far too much time to remedy a problem myself) it pays off. A case in point right now is that I'm restoring a 1951 M that I just bought and like most Farmalls, both seals, front and back of the engine are leaking. I definitely won't even try to do this myself and trying to break it in two and screw the goose trying to stabilize everything and am taking it to our local IH dealer. I have the equipment to do the job but know my limitations. It's money saving in the long run, because when I have dinked around with something and taken both too much time and spent too much money (according to my resident financial officer) I take it where they know what the hen they're doing. Good luck.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
