If it has a Key start, there will be a Starter relay on or near the starter. This relay might have 4 terminals. one of the small ones will be labeled "I" this terminal should go to the coil side of the resistor if so equipped. Some have an ignition wire from the key to the coil that is a resistor in and of itself. This would then have that I wire connected to the coil directly. (on the terminal not connected to the points) The resistor in a wire type may not be tha case on your tractor, I do not know) if you measure the resistance of the coil with it disconnected) from smapp terminal to small terminal it should be around 2.5 to 3 ohms if 6volt, or 12v for use with a external resistor. If it is a 12v no resistor required, it will measure about 4 to 5 ohms. If it is a failing coil it will have low resistance. (it could be a 12v coil failing and looking like a 6v in resistance. If you measure the voltage at the coil within 1 minute of turning it on (but not starting it), and the points are closed (normally comes to rest in that position) the voltage will read 8 or less if it has an internal resistor, and about 12.3 or more if it does not. Do not leave the key on for more than 2 minutes with it not running, it will heat the coil even if it is the correct coil. Jim

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Godfrey, Illinois Country Days - by Cindy Ladage. Except for last fourth of July's Old Gold show in Springfield, Illinois, I don't remember when it was so hot. Nevertheless, the heat didn't keep vendors and visitors alike from enjoying the third annual Country Day's Event. Jane Elliott said the event was originally a one man show. "Barry Seiler, owner of Country Town Farm Supply store used to invite people up to the Johne Deere store. He would give hats and a free meal for everyone that brings a tractor." Elliott said while this ... [Read Article]
