Bought a 1948 Farmall H through an online auction. Was told it was running when it came in. When I went to pick it up, no go.
I am new to old tractors so I wll have a ton of questions. This tractor had a 12v negative ground battery in it. Upon checking it out it looks like it has the original generator and starter as well as a 6 volt coil. Starter only clunks when you puch the button.
Did these guys cook the starter or anything else by using a 12v battery? Shouldn't it be a 6v positive ground?
Are there any options for an electronic ignition with the horizontal distributor cap?
