Farmall 656
Member
My dad had an electrical issue with his 1967 Farmall 656 this winter. You would start the tractor and it would run like a top and then 30-40 seconds later shut down. Then, it wouldn't start. After scratching the head a few times and having this happen a couple of more times, he called his tractor guy. His diagnosis and fix was to replace the electric device off of the carburetor and replace it with a manual adjustment. Problem solved-tractor runs like a top. Today, I started and ran the tractor then parked it. A few hours later, I started it and 30-40 seconds later it shut down. I could not start it. I checked the spark at the points and nothing. This has had new points, condenser, rotor, and spark plugs this spring. The battery is in good shape.
I am looking for any advice, ideas, guidance for my dad to try next. Thank you in advance!
