Fuel shut off solenoid problem. It is a dual voltage system. Higher when cranking and then reduced for running. I'd drop the solenoid, clean up the shaft and lube it, replace the boot, and the relay. You can do this for $30. That shaft in the solenoid can get pretty gummy and worn. While you have it out bench test it with any 12 v battery you have a round It should slam in there pretty quick if it's good. It's possible to just reach up under the manifold, abovr the solenoid and rotate that lever to manually close the system so it will run.Then keep your hand on it and see if it drops down when she lets off the key. A temporary fix is to wire that lever full up removing the solenoid. But you can start and run but it won't shut off. Better have a 5 spd so you can stall it in 5th gear.
Gordo A new solenoid from Mopar will set you back about $800, but you can get the boots, relays, and solenaid from eaby for about $200.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
