Hi all!, it's been a few years since i've been on this site, life has been very busy!, I finally got my 46 super a going( actually my wife's, she asked for something red with four wheels for her birthday)with a lot of help from my uncle. It turns out the mag was away out of timing as well as being weak. Now, the the problem I have is the mag sparks fine when turned by hand, but when the tractor is running i only get two leads firing, the leads are fine, and the cap and rotor are new, any ideas where I should look inside for possible problems?. Secondly, I just had the starter redone but it has a threaded battery cable post on it , as someone in the past had put a floor mounted switch on it, I have a new original type switch, can i file down the threaded post to mke a proper contact for the switch or do I have to get the starter shop to replace this post? what kind of post or stub do they originally have as i have never seen one up close. Getting ready to paint the remaining front half this weekend and hope to put her to work soon! thx

MAG... Are 2 leads actually not firing or do you have 2 cylinders not firing due to the wires not being in the correct firing order? I suppose it is not impossible for a new cap to be defective?

Check your point gap, and check cam that operates points to be sure you have all lobes there and in good condition. Did you time the little gears that turn the rotor shaft?

STARTER... The original bolt is copper with kind of a wedge shaped head on it the is installed from the outside of the starter, with the nut on the inside. Then the copper field connections are soldered to the threaded end of the bolt. You could try putting a brass nut on the stud you have, and filing it at a bit of an angle to mesh with the starter switch you have.
