Model T guys are doing this. Anybody tried this on a tractor? DIODE NEGATIVE GROUND
T-5055-DIO
DIODE NEGATIVE GROUND
T-5055-DIO
19-27
Convert your standard "point" style cutout to a diode style. A diode will eliminate the problem of sticking points. Comes with instructions. For negative ground systems only.
Quantity:
$5.95 EA
T-5055-DIO - CONVERTING FORD CUTOUT TO SOLID STATE• File or grind off spot welds on bottom of cover ( 2 or 3 ).• Set cutout upside down in a piece of 2 in. pipe and drive the cover off.• Remove the 4) 6-32 screws in the sides of the coil bracket (Not The Bottom)• Un-solder the large coil from the small bracket and the small wire from the base.• With a hacksaw cut off one side of the coil bracket and continue to cut thru the base of the coil and its core.• In the remaining side of the bracket, drill a hole starting with a 1/4” bit and work up to 1/2”. This is so the hole will be round.• At this point, the cover and base may be cad plated with no ill effects to the insulators. Before plating, de-grease and lightly sandblast or wire brush the metal to remove rust.• To install the diode, set it in the hole and press it in using a 7/16” or 1/2” deep socket or a tool designed for installing diodes. Use a 5/8” socket to support the bracket under the diode.• Bend the diode lead over and solder it to the small bracket.• Reinstall the cover (B to battery terminal) solder at seam.

Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment.
