Tried to start my JD450B after it sat for 2 months. Turned over a few times, battery died. Charged it hit the starter button, nothing. Put the charger on 200 amp boost, nothing.It has a key and starter button. When I hit the button, amp guage shows a draw. Put the jump cable directly on the solenoid with good ground, nothing. Took the solenoid off, took the cap off, cleaned the copper all up, wd40-ed everything. Putsolenoid back on, hit the button, nothing. Guage on dash still shows draw when I hit the button. Lights work so I,m pretty sure battery connections are good. Strter is fairly new (200 hours ago) It's a real bi%^h to change and expensive so I'm hoping it's something else. Would the amp guage show a draw if the starter button was bad and not the solenoid? Wouldn't the sloenoid at least click if it was OK and the starter was bad? Thanks for any input. Gus

12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
