Have 1949 Pony that spark is not very hot. I know nothing about this type of tractor and wonder where I should start. So far not running. Plug type ?? Points look new ?? Does it have resistor wire or voltage drop ?? I installed new 6 volt battery is all so far. Thanks

I tried to put resistor wire on my 1953 Pony and it wouldn't even start.
Best stick with the solid wire. Good luck.

1. If the coil is hooked up backwards, spark will be weak. I believe Ponys were a battery positive ground system
2. As far as I know, all 6 volt systems do not use a ballast resistor or resistor wire. Full 6 volts to coil. 3. The engine works best with solid metal core plug wires. Sometimes I've seen people put in carbon core radio supression wire (made for a car) which weakens the spark.
