Odd thing happened today, while running the tractor out in the field, I turned on the headlights and it promptly killed the engine. This happened 3 times in a row. I just completely rewired it and all worked well for around a month. This is a 12 volt system with a 1 year old battery on a 1948 8n. When I try and turn the lights on now, they don't burn. However have good juice to the starter. One other point of interest, if I leave the battery connected for longer than 2 days, it kills the battery. So now I just unplug the positive terminal when not in use. I didn't replace any of the other electrical components during the rewiring/restoration process. My thoughts are a lose wire, but not sure. Everything seems secured well in the conduit. Thanks again!
