Well I made a spot in the shop for the 130 to spend some time as the weather starts to get cold way up North.

Pulled the D15Y"s to have a look. Hmmmmm, manual says to gap to .023, but these were gapped to about .030, they look fairly new.

All spark plug wires are "suppression wire" with a reading of about 3.1Kohms.

No ballast resister to the coil. This tractor converted to 12vdc, using an alternator and a 12vdc coil.

I am going over this tractor to see if I can get it purring right. If I am successful, I will look at purchasing it from current owner. If it requires more work than I care to do, or pay for, I will sell it for him.

How much, if any, will the suppression wire affect engine performance?

Later tonite I will be looking at the points and the timing.

I believe in magnetic supression wires, they have real wire wound around a fiber core. there resistance is near zero, but they prevent radio static in the TV and radios in the house, and neighbors' homes. I believe that the best place for resistance in the system is in the spark gap. With a electronic Ign system I would use near .040. With points and a good coil .030. I hope I helped some. JimN

I know a lot of guys will disagree with me, but when I took Auto Mechanics in 67 we were taught that yuo got a hotter spark with the supression wires, as it had to build up m,ore voltage to go through the wires. I know the older tractor coils probablt didn't put out that kind of voltage, but with a newer 12 V coil they should wrok. I once drove a Chevy dump truck with a 366 in it that burned oil, and one plug kept fouling untill we put new supression wires on it.
