John Deere 1010 gas with Wico distributor and 12v positive ground. Distributor is worn out and parts are NLA. Ordered new Pertronix distributor, and am converted to negative ground.
Wired distributor to new coil, swapped battery cables, replaced fuel gauge, and polarized generator at the voltage regulator. What did we miss???
Tractor started and ran good while we set the timing and tried adjusting the carb. While running the AMP light was on and brighter with more RPM...do we need to switch those leads?
Shut the tractor down to adjust length of governor rod and now none of the lights work and the tractor won't even turn over, the starter solenoid just clicks. Found battery to be warm and only measuring about 6 volts so definitely low but why warm on one end? I don't think anything we did could have hurt the starter.
Thoughts?
