Alternating a Farmall A

Anonymous-0 · Jul 24, 2008

I've machined out My alternator bracket...alternator is lined up with fan pully....I,ve built a new adjustin' bracket...got the right diode (I hope )...One more question before I go any futher. What about the coil? Do I need a 12 volt coil or do I keep the 6 volt. If it wouldn't be too long a reply I'd like to know the whys and wherefores of why the I keep the 6 or change to a 12...There's a few thigs I know a little about, tractor electronics ain't one. Thanks for all Yaw'ls help so far.

12 volt with an internal or external resistor.

you can keep the 6v coil, just zip on over to napa and get a coil ballast resister for an early 1970"s b body chrysler. cost about 3- 4 dollars. put it in the wire supplying power to the coil. its a ceramic block about 3-4 inches long, drops the 12v down to run the coil.
