bought another farmall M to restore,..problem !!! i put a 12 volt battery in it,..grounded the positive side and started it up and drove it to the garage, after turning the wheel back around and checking the fluids i started it back up and it fried all the little wires coming off the hot side of the battery,..could it be negative ground ?????? or do i just have a short..
 
Sounds like it has a short since 12 volt or 6 volt it would still work just fine. Now if it has an alternator on it and you hooked it up + ground then yep you just let the smoke out of the alternator and that is now a problem
