[Farmall] Farmall H Quits

Mon Aug 28 13:26:00 PDT 2006

Hi Lane,

  I agree and that was my first thought and I found a nice fellow who goes by the handle of Magneto Man on Ebay and shipped it to him and after inspecting it he thought it was OK.  He did say that wire inside was loose and may have been grounding out and when he sent it back I got spark, which I did not have before.  I have just removed and replaced the mag - how hard is it to change the coil?  I do not think they are that expensive and it would certainly be worth a shot. 

  Thanks for all the good advice I see you post and appreciate your feedback.

  Thanks,
  Keith

  Are you sure the new mag is good. Sounds like coil breakdown is a 
possibility. Others will know more.
