Well guys, despite the interesting
conversation my last post created, I got
my 400 running today.
What I has to do was get rid of my 6v coil
and resistor and swap it for a 12 volt
coil with an internal resistor. The
tractor popped right off. I never had to
swap the battery or charge it. What I
believed happened was my resistor got wet
because of the way I placed it next to my
coil. So this was a learning experience
for me.
I appreciated all the positive posts about
my dilemma. It is great to see all the
restored FFA tractors and machinery. Of
course every one of them has help along
the way. Some may have more than others,
but it's like that with everything, no
matter how old you are.
I'm headed to Iowa State next week to
study Ag Engineering, so I will be posting
more answers than questions for sure.
