Hey Red Dave - Your logic makes sense - I think you've correctly diagnosed the root of Gene's problem! Another way to check would be to take a voltage reading with the ignition on and the motor NOT running. Measure between the coil "+" terminal and a good ground. With the jumper in place the meter should read battery voltage (12.6 or so), and with the jumper removed about 7 volts. This would account for the weak spark since the coil wants a 12 volt input, but is only actually getting 7 volts. Can also try running the tractor with the jumper in place - I'll bet that solves the problem. Solution then would be to install a "6 volt" coil in place of the internally resistor-equipped 12 volt coil.

Product Review: JB Weld - by Staff. JB Weld is basically an epoxy glue that does an exceptionally good job of bonding to cast iron and steel along with several other materials. As I mentioned, it is so common that I have yet to buy a tractor that did not have JB Weld used somewhere. It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens
