Posted by Gary Clark on August 29, 2004 at 13:58:48 from (198.68.166.198):
I've burned up 4 coils in the past year, having replaced the
regulator, resistor, plugs, wires, points, condensor, rotor, cap,
battery, and just yesterday the complete wiring harness, on my
front-mount 8N. With a new coil, it starts and runs beautifully,
but after about 5 hours of time running a 4-ft brush hog the
thing will start to sputter, lose power, and eventually stall and
refuse to start until and new coil is installed. This is making it
hard for me to acquire the level of affection for the 8N I
anticipated having when I bought it. Now that I have a new
harness I'll try another coil tomorrow, but how can I be sure I'm
not going to just burn through another one?! I have from time to time jumped it using a 12-volt running
truck, and some say this is bad, some say no problem. Any how,
coils seem to have failed without having endured a 12-volt jump
and people tell me they've fixed all kinds of old and new
tractors and have NEVER had to replace a coil. Can anyone help
me before I give up? Gary Clark
