Hello,
Recently got a 1950 8n, after replacing the gas tank that had 2 inches of rust, and the hydraulic flyid full of pine needles, I have encounterd a starter or ignition switch problem. I can start the tractor after twisting together both wires going to the key switch and touching them to the battery ground terminal, which causes the battery guage to jump up. I was getting no starter action or battery guage movement when I turned the key. I assume the ground to the switch or starter is compromised but dont know what to do. Anyone encountered this or know what I should do? Thanks a lot.
Chad
