Hi everyone,
I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving. I am new to this site and looking for any advice with an issue I?m having. My 1950s super A has been running well for the last couple years but earlier this year I had to replace the battery and the alternator. While doing that I replaced some wires that were bare. I installed the alternator and as soon as I connected the battery, the engine fired right up. While it?s running I can hear the starter spinning the entire time. I went back and ?unhooked? the wires I replaced and still it fires right up as soon as the battery is connected. I thought it may have been the ignition switch, so I replaced that and no changes. If anyone has any idea why this is happening I would really appreciate any advice or ideas on what to troubleshoot. I will try and upload a picture of the wiring if that would help. If any other information would be helpful, please let me know and I will do my best to provide it. I am new to tractors and not really sure what to do at this point.
Thanks so much!
Adam
