Tried awful lot of chargers, best for me is straight 2, 4, 6 maybe at 10 if you're in a hurry at all. All fancy ones bit the dust in a hurry. Best info I have on charging is slowly as possible. If batt is 75amp hours and is dead, charge it at 2 amps for 37.5 hours, or 4 amps for 18.75 hours, etc. Watch ammeter even though not all are accurate. If 2amps doesnt move needle, try little higher rate. Motorcycle batt, very low rate like 1/2 or 1 amp. Add bulb or resistor in series to keep rate under control. Don't boil em out. Use hydrometer-Look for consistent reading on cells. If after sufficient charging, hydrometer don't read right, use is limited. Don't add water in cold weather, might freeze unless you are on the road and running. Keep terminals clean, shiny clean. Anything green needs cleaning(or brown). Won't stay clean, cracked post in case. No cure that I know of. Someone one this post said the Pulsing charger was only good on batt in excellent condition, like still reads 11 volts, maybe. Be nice to your batt, and it will last a good while. Had one go 9 years in a 61 Ford.

I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
