Dave: I have read all of this discussion, and my first reaction, could your coil already be 12 volt, and not requiring the resistor. If you are in fact cutting the output of a 12 volt coil with built in resistor in half, that may be why your tractor tries but cant run. Been there and done that. In my opinion buying resistors is nothing more than a troublesome cheap fix. If doing a 12 volt conversion I always buy a new 12 volt coil. If you are starting with someone elses conversion and labeling is off the coil you really have no idea what your dealing with. Good chance the previous owner sold the tractor as he didn't know what he was dealing with or doing either. I've seen some quite ridiculous cobbled up wiring systems in my day, some of them actually work, for awhile anyhow. Probably summer only.
