Thanks guys, for your replies. I am pretty sure the starter needs attention, when I try to boost the tractor, smoke comes out of 1 -the battery cable / starter connection or 2 - the starter itself. I will try to just take the studs out of the belt pulley - I don't know why they had to engineer that area so tight??? The 1942 Farmall H that I am fixing for my neighbour is a totally different casting. I was sure they were originally positive ground, as my SMTA is,so someone has changed the wires.The starter just has a stud on it which makes sense as to the wire coming from the start plunger switch should go there instead of the positive battery cable. I bought a on/off switch from the local Case/IH dealer which is nothing like the original, plastic knob etc - probably the only type available, except it has two studs on the back for probably distributor ignition. Will this switch work with one wire attached to the one stud for magneto ignition? I assume so. I would have liked the look of the original type, does anyone know availability?
