Seriously,I've never done it,but I bought a forage box from a guy several years ago who had a restored Ferguson 30. He said that his dad bought it new.

It would whirl,but wouldn't start. Said if they pulled it just a few feet,it would start right up and run perfect. He said they finally got tired of messing with it and parked it for quite a few years. Said when his son got old enough to care about it,he wanted to restore it.

Said they put a new one in and hooked it up right and it's started great every since. Why wasn't it starting right with the ground reversed?
