Well I thought my day was going pretty good, getting my latest acquisition ready to start. Temp fuel...Check. New battery wires and starter switch....Check. Put the exhaust pipe back on... Check.. Crank her up.........Magneto No Check..#@@@*^()**+. I've been playing with this M for about a month now,taking my time and I'm just now noticing that this tractor has a J4 mag on it instead of a H4..(scratching head) OK, no big deal. they are sort of interchangable. But when I got out the multimeter to troubleshoot,, I discovered that with nothing hooked up to the grounding post I was still getting continuity between that and the chassis. Upon opening it up I did not find anything that looked like it was grounding out at all.. So I'm stumped. I am correct in assuming that I should not be getting a ground at the post outside the case, Right??? The coil reads solid, the points are new, and the condenser is insulated from the case. What am I missing here? :?
