The tractor was running about two weeks ago. I was plowing snow and after it warmed up it was bogging down when I used the hydraulics or when I let out the clutch. I took off the gas bowl and cleaned the screen and drained a little gas out to check for water. I took out the screen in the carb and checked it. When I turned the gas back on gas poured out of the carb So I figured the carb needed rebuilt. I took it to a shop to be rebuilt. When I got it back I put it on and gave it a try. The battery was weak so I hooked it to the charger on boost. That is when the coil got hot and leaked oil.
The tractor has a 1 a wire 12v alternator and a 12v battery. I have a resister behind the dash that drops the voltage to 6.2 volts to the coil. This system has been working for the last 4 years. The starter is original. The distributor was NOT taken out at any time.
I added a new coil, and took the coil wire off the distributor cap. I got good HOT spark there. I plugged it back in.
With the points closed I have 6.2 volts at the + post. With the points open I have 12.4.
I put in brand new points and they are set at .020
