Dad and I have a 1950 WD in Omaha (it was my granddads so has sentimental value), that does not get used much. I made a snow blade for it, which replaces the bucket on the loader for snow removal, so this is the majority of what it gets asked to do. Today I was going to start it and install the snow blade, but it had no spark. It has been converted to 12 volt, so I began checking my power. Had 12 volt everywhere except after the ignition coil resister-it read 2 volts with the points open. Remember, this resister is not stock to this tractor, so took it along to the parts store. First place a young girl needs to know the vehicle, so I tell her 1970 Plymouth Fury III, with a 318-(Dad had one.) Then she needs to know what the part is called-my wording did not match her computer, so it finally was decided it was a dealer part. So, I high tail it to our NAPA warehouse store, and she does not even look it up! Says we used to sell a boat load of those, not so much anymore! There is no substitute for experience! Oh, and it fired right up too! Greg
