[AT] IH H questions

[Dudley Rupert]

Joe,

I am not adding anything of significance to what Mike and Ralph have already
said except maybe an additional piece of empirical information that would
tend to support their conclusion -

When I traced out the wiring some time ago on my Supers A, H & M (they all
have lights and distributors) I found that only the lights were protected by
the fuse; that is, the coil/distributor is not protected by the fuse.   So,
assuming Farmall would wire both their tractors with and without lights the
same, there would be nothing for the fuse to protect on those tractors
delivered without lights.  Of course, if your' tractor had a magneto (I
don't recall your saying) then it would seem obvious there would be nothing
on your' H, when delivered, for a fuse to protect.

I'm pretty sure my Cockshutt tractors had this same fuse on the light switch
too. If you don't have lights on your tractor then the fuse is probably not
a concern.
