Hi guys!
Some of you may already have seen my post up on the tractor talk board, but this is my first time down in this section. I'm looking foward to meeting some more fine folks with the same ethusiasm for fergies as I've been infected with. So I just got around to ordering some parts for it and a owners manual and it should be here next week. In the mean time I have a question about the ignition system. It came to me without spark and I found the coil is shot. It's still original 6vdc positive ground. While looking about for a coil I read somewhere were the coil is only 10amps max. current, and I read else where were the generator puts out 25amps max. now I know that 25amps is at high rpm but still what keeps the coil from frying? The one that's on there now doesn't have an internal resistor and there isn't any in wire harness. The wiring diagram I found on the internet is rather rudimentary and doesn't show any resistor either. So is this tractor supposed to have a resistor in the circuit? Any help would be appriciated, thanx. I'll check back in a couple hours as the mosquitoes haven't been feed yet today.
