Went to start my Ford Jubilee and the solinoid just clicked. 12 volt system. Charged the battery to 100%, put it back in. Still nothing just clicks. Thought it was the solinoid so I bought another one. Same thing. Brought another battery out and used jumper cables to hook it up to the other battery. Turned over slow but started. pulled the second battery and it ran for anout 30 seconds and engine stopped. Tried starting it with just the one battery...just clicks. Hooked up the second battery, turned over slow but started. Now when I pulled off the jumper cable the engine stops right away. Took the trctor battery into an auto parts store they checked it and said the battery was fine. Said it might be the altenator. Put battery back in tractor. just clicks. Hooked up second battery, cranked slow but started. Put multimeter on altenator 24 ac volts??
I'm stumpped. any help would be greatly appreciated.
