I recently installed an electronic ignition assembly on my 9N with front mount distributor. I also replaced cap, rotor button, plug wires & plugs at same time. It ran great for a couple of weeks (probably 7 to 8 hours total run time) then the ignition resistor went out, it was extremely hot to the touch. I installed a new one and the tractor cranked up and ran for about 5 minutes, then quit. The new resistor was also extremely hot and when I tested it it showed no resistance. I decided to check the coil and it shows no resistance between top post and spring on bottom. The tractor was converted to 12V before I got it so I don"t know if the coil is 6V or 12V. Shouldn"t there be some resistance between these two points on the coil? If the coil is bad and I need a new one I will probably get the 12V coil for it. If I do install a 12V coil do I still need a resistor in line? I checked behind the dash and did not see any other resistors in the wiring.

The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
