lakemac45, don't be so hard on yourself, you're not an idiot, you're just ignorant! Now, before you feel insulted, ignorance is merely a lack of knowledge. The fact that you asked advice shows that you're no idiot. That being said, your problem may be compound, since, as a tractor ages, the electrical system components deteriorate, (unless you are one of those rare people who stay on top of all needed repairs), So you could have some weak spark as a result.
