From your discription it sounds like the pulley setup on your tractor does not turn a 1 wire alternator fast enough to self energize. If you never intend to put lights on your tractor using the light terminal of the light/ign switch will work fine. This would put the alternator exciter wire(#1 on alternator) on a seperate terminal which would eliminate the backfeed to the ign coil and shut down problem. If you wire it this way you should not need a resistor-idiot light or diode in the exciter wire(#1). one point I am not clear on, was the new alt a 1 wire? if so you do not need the #2 regulator wire at the alt connected to anything. If the new alt is a 3 wire model the #2 regulator wire must be connected to the bat stud on the alt rear or the regulator will not work, it will charge flat out all the time.
