[AT] 630lpg starting problems

[Howard Bottles]

Ricky-

Have him run a hotwire from the battery straight to the coil, John 
Deeres have a bypass starting system. What this means is that the 
electrical system is 12v,
and has a 6v coil. There is a resistor in the line feeding the coil that 
drops the voltage from 12v to 6v. When you push the button to start the 
tractor, it is supposed to put a full 12v to the coil to help it start 
better. could be that this bypass circuit is not working, or a problem 
with the ignition switch. That is why i say run a temporary wire from 
the battery to the coil and then try to start it. Also, make sure the 
battery is well charged up, it is possible that while the battery will 
crank the tractor, there may not be enough juice for the ignition system

Let us know how it goes.

>I have yet to pick up the 630 lpg.  The owner is having a difficult time getting it to start.  It will start when you pull it, but won't when you use the battery.  Any ideas of what it might be?  It has been sitting in a barn for 3 years since it ran last.  What do you think?  Thanks,Ricky
