    Gerald J, John T - Testing diodes in a bat. charger

    I have a Solar brand charger that doesn't seem to charge any more. I want to make sure the diode bridge is okay. I just don't want to buy a new one to find I was wrong or spend $100+ on the new version of what I have when I know I can buy the bridge for $35. Trouble is I don't remember how...

    plug gap

    I have recently installed a pertronix 1247xt Electronic ignition on my 47 2N. I was wondering what to gap the spark plugs at. Thanks

    ignition wiring

    I ripped out all wiring except solenoid. I replaced ignition with 1247xt and rewired everything according to Bob diagram. Everything works great now it is converted to 12 volt negative ground with electronic ignition. However I reused the battery and alternator that was either mispolarized for...

    ignition wiring

    The battery is not mispolarized. I check with a vom. And the Alternator says right on it that it is a negative ground. However, when I got the tractor the positive terminal from the battery is hooked directly to ground. Maybe alt was always hooked up wrong. I just want to do it right. Currently...

    ignition wiring

    When I seen vom I didn't know what you were refering to in your previous post. I will put my volt ohm meter on it and let you know. How do I verify my alt. is positive ground? It looks like a 70's GM unit. You help is appreciated as always.

    ignition wiring

    I believe my alt. is identical to one in picture. Is S1 the key switch? Do I have to side marker light in the P1 wire? Also I just replied to soundguy and was wondering about switching to negative ground. Thanks

    ignition wiring

    Mispolarized battery? I definately have a positive ground. Once I get the EI installed is there anything I have to do to the starter or solenoid to switch to negative ground.

    ignition wiring

    It has a old style GM alternator that has a wire hooked to the batt. terminal. Wire goes from alt to + side of ampmeter. No wires are hooked to 1 and 2 terminals on alt. From - side of ampmeter wire goes to square resistor block on common post. 2 other wires on common post, 1 goes to another...

    ignition wiring

    I need a complete ignition wiring diagram for a 47 2N. It has been converted to 12v but I'm not sure if it was done properly. It is a positive ground system, but I was hoping to switch to a electronic ignition. They all say negative ground only. Any pointers would be appreciated.

    serial number, what model and year

    Now that I know it is a 47 2N engine, how do I verify the rest of the tractor is that?

    serial number, what model and year

    I have recently purchased a tractor that is my first and need to know year and model. On the left side of block is 9N28II60 with stars, not asterisks before and after the number.
