Guy had called me a couple weeks ago about this one and wanted to know if I could fix it or if it would be a parts tractor. Well hauled in home today and it looks like with about $200 or so in parts, carb rebuild etc it should be back up and running. Now the question where are and how do you get to the points on a mag on a B?? Thanks.
I'm going to try to save the mag but if its not any good I'll switch it out sort of by adding a coil to it

The problem is that the points are behind a partition. The rotor and a offset shaft come off with it. There is a pair of gears that will get out of mesh. Set at TDC #1, mark the rotor position very carefully, Remove, deal with points/condenser. Replace to the exact same spot. Gap .013" JimN

I use a local radio station a lot. Theres 2 of them in my area where I can call in asking for old dead tractors. I also say I do my best to put them back in service and none will end up being cut up for scrap and people seem to like to know that and call me about what they have. I fix what I can and then if its not one I want or need turn around and sell it so I have the money to buy more or them. This one is a customers tractor so all I'm doing to it is fixing it up well enough for him to use it. It was his grand fathers so he really wants it up and running if I can do it. I did sort of check the mag tonight but since I was alone I had to do it the painful way and hold the coil wire in my hand and turn the engine over with a hand crank. It seems to work because I jumped about a foot off the floor of the trailer. LOL
