Hi Idaho Ron...A lot of these old tractors have been converted from 6 volt positive ground to 12 volt negative ground. So as I read your post I was trying to find a clue as which setup your tractor has. But I got conflicting clues and couldn't tell for sure. But you did say you got 12.2 volts so you must have a 12 volt battery in it and it probably (??) is negative ground also. The grounding setup determines how the coil is wired and your original wiring seemed like it was wired wrong because it was wired for a positive ground system. Yet if you have a 12 volt system and these were almost always negative ground. So check that out. When you bought the coil the dealer probably didn't know you had the tractor converted from the original 6 volt system to 12 volts so he may have sold you the original type 6 volt coil. I'd check with the dealer and see exactly what you got. If you have a 6 volt coil with a resistor in front of it, that could be your faint spark problem. Pete
