Hello blackhole49,
Did not see the original thread. If it starts as soon as you put external voltage to the battery cables, it tells me two things. One is that you are getting proper voltage to the starter, so the starter is good, and two it sound like just a bad or discharged battery. You need to start from the battery posts to battery cables and look for voltage drop. From the negative cable to ground. From the positive cable to the starter, and every connection in between. You can try a ground jumper from the battery to ground, you may get lucky. But I'm betting on a voltage drop, while cranking the engine, between the battery and the started on the plus side. 6 volt systems are notorious for poor starting when all is good. AT 0 degrees you may have 60% of battery power available. Every connection must be clean and tight with zero resistance!

Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
