I agree with Mike Sloane who stated that the ignition system
on the B/BN is no different in essence than hundreds of
thousands of other IH tractors. If *ANY* spark-ignition,
internal-combustion-powered machine has ignition trouble,
just find the cause and fix it. It's that simple. There's
nothing magical or mysterious about the B/BN.
