Hello all,
Struggling with an issue on a new to me Ford 6610. The starter/relay wires that came on the tractor were pretty rough looking and appeared to be melted slightly. Every time I would go to start the tractor the starter would spin a few times before it would engage the flywheel.
Decided to replace the old wires (with 10 gauge) and it fired right up with no issues, so I thought I fixed the issue. The starter seemed to turn faster too.
Went out today to fire up the tractor and it slowly spun over, then I see smoke building up and the wires are melted again. Is this a relay or starter problem? I know the relay isn't factory on these tractors but I just can't pinpoint the problem. I thought maybe I have a battery going out but I can't imagine that would be burning up wires. All the connections are super clean as well.

My curiosity was up and I wanted to contact the owner. I wanted to see what he planned to do with the combine.
