    My MF 65 quits after 30 minutes

    So I checked the spark, it looked good. The coil is new, I changed out the points and set the gap and couldn't get spark with the new points. Put the old points back in and set the gap to .022 and still the same thing. Now the battery is dead, again. I'm starting to think it's the generator...

    My MF 65 quits after 30 minutes

    I've rebuilt the carb and installed a sediment bowl, the tank is fairly clean. I have plenty of fuel flow.

    My MF 65 quits after 30 minutes

    thank you. I did change the condenser and was running it till my manure spreader broke the table chain a hundred yards from starting. But it was still starting to act the same. I'll find out more tomorrow.

    also the coil is brand new, and it originally had an external resistor. I'm running a series 65 12 volt battery with a 700cca. There's 12.6 bolts going into the coil and 9.6 coming out. Not sure if my generator is warming up and quitting producing though either

    My MF 65 quits after 30 minutes

    I'll try that first thing tomorrow, this tractor did have one when I first got it. It runs really strong for about 30 minutes. Then it just keeps getting weaker then dies

    I didn't check for that. It's brand new though it only cost $20 from Steiner. It did the same before with an unresisted coil. I thought an internally resisted coil would be better than having the external resistor which was missing beforehand. How would I check that?

    My MF 65 quits after 30 minutes

    I have a Massey Ferguson 65, it runs and starts great but after about 30 minutes runs out of spark and dies. I have a newer series 65 battery, internally resisted coil and new voltage regulator. There's 12.6 colts going into the coil and 9.5 colts coming out. Am I missing something. The...
