Hello,
I just joined the forum. I finally after many years of looking got a 1940 Farmall A. I ran the serial number to get the year FAA24281.
Anyway, to shut the tractor I pull the governor handle all the way back. One detent before and it idles, pull it back and it shuts. How is this working so precisely when there is no wire going to the magneto for a cut off switch?
I makes me question if something is not the way it should be. Oh it was converted to 12v Neg Ground.
Also, why does the Magneto have this strange rotating arm on it?
Thanks!
