[Farmall] cub j4 magneto

[WALTER AVERY]

Mike, What was your problem? I have a weak spark and it will only start when pulled. It does make the clicking sound when cranked, so I beleive that partof the mag is ok (forgot what it is called).

I agree with John. I replaced mine about 15 years ago (I thought the 
coil was bad, but it turned out to be another problem), and I don't 
recall any difficulty at the time. This was on a '48 Cub, and I am still 
using the same point/condenser/rotor. The rings are worn, but the 
tractor still fires right up and does a day's work (I only use it with a 
22 sickle bar to trim around ponds and along steep banks a couple of 
times a month during the summer months).
