I'm trying to get things in working order on my Allis Chalmers 5040 tractor, when i went to wire the new fuel gauge i found out the key switch has no fire going to it, one wire (off the key switch) goes to the starter switch on the dash and the other wire goes down to the safety start switch on top of the tranny cover.

I had considered by passing it, i am the only one that operates the tractor and I always take it out of gear before cranking.

I'm sorry in advance, I can do simple wiring jobs but this is a little out of my comfort zone, i've looked at the wiring diagram but that hasn't helped much so far.

I had heard rumours that an old Case Model C was languishing away in the back of one of the outbuildings there. So off I went in search of what would turn out to be a very rare and unusual tractor. Mr Kendall is an excitable chap to say the least. He is amongst the last of a dying breed of farmer who
