They don't look rebuildable, an aluminum casing peened over a plastic back... I tried to take it apart in hopes of fixing it but for $30? Maybe they would replace it but I didn't want another and wanted it fixed ASAP.

The Charger hasn't been seeing much road time do to a few issues it's developed, me just not having the spare time and me being sick of fixing **** non stop. I had vapor lock issues that made me reluctant to drive it but thanks to my wife's generous gift (fuel system upgrade) that has been...

I used a Derale, mostly because I liked having some adjustability and it being neatly packaged all in one box. It's a nice setup, turns one fan on at 185 then the second at 195 and also turns one on anytime the A/C is running.

It still has a generator, no alternator.

Parts will be here tomorrow!! I called my local Massey dealer and told them to get everything coming, got a call a few minutes later telling me to call Summit because her cost is nearly double! Good people, how many places call you back and tell you where to get parts cheaper? Summit had them in...

Couldn't tell you, I believe it's a 1958? Pretty sure the guy I bought it off of said it was converted?

We have a 1967 Minneapolis Moline, I haven't touched the ignition in years.. keeps chugging along. I'm stumped on the Ferguson and the Massey, I'm buying what the tractor shop and the Napa shows that it calls for at least for a 12V negative ground.

I started running these coils that don't require the external resistors thinking I'd eliminate one more fragile part.. no change. My biggest problem has been coils, I'm not even getting 6 months at times.

See post #9.

I've been getting mine at Napa, Echlin I believe was the last one.

This is what I wanted to hear. I get the whole argument.. don't throw parts at a problem but when it comes to points vs magnetic pickups nobody should even argue the point. I just wanted to hear whether or not Pertronix was a quality part before purchasing and heard the name thrown around on...

I know it's not rocket science which is why it's so aggrevating. It was already converted to 12 volts, yes I put a meter on the coil, it runs a 12 volt coil with an internal resistor so 12V at the coil. I ran my TO 30 both ways, with an external resistor then without using the internal...

Just wanting to pick some brains.. I've got a Massey Ferguson 65 that's driving me mad! I bought it last year with the intentions of completely rebuilding it this winter but have some brush hogging to finish first. Between it and the TO30 I just sold I've had nothing but ignition problems from...

When I rewired my car I sure as hell didn't put the bulkhead back in, I put a new harness in and didn't put any unnecessary connections in at all. It was done the way it was for assembly purposes, if done right there shouldn't be one at all.

Maybe there's a preferred location?? I don't know but the process is extremely easy and I never worried about where #1 ended up unless there was a plug wire routing issue. As mentioned, bring #1 up on the compression stroke.. I personally set it at 12 degrees BTDC then line up a tower with the...

As Beekeeper suggested.. check all grounds, bad grounds do goofy things.

This is just my take on MSD or other aftermarket high perf ignitions, they're a waste of money for stock-mild builds. They have their place so don't get me wrong but sometimes simple is better. I'd do as recommended by RJ and sort it out, when your done you won't be at the mercy of non off the...

I recently put a set of Dormans in, all I can say is they fit right. We'll see how long they last.

Before you buy a battery have someone crank it over cold and hot while checking the voltage at the starter, compare the 2 readings and you'll have your answer. Sounds like the starter is the problem to me, won't crank once it's hot. You can try heat shields or going to a mini to get some of the...

I've done this in a pinch, I used insulated butt connectors but pulled the insulation off. Leave just enough wire exposed to get the solder on the wire and put the heat to the connector not the wire. To combat corrosion and wire fatigue now that it's solid at least at the connector I use a high...
