you have probably got to many amps in your battery that is knocking the end off put the smallest 12 v bat that you can find at wal m or k mart ina std bat even 35mf with 12v starter will knock off end if you have a high amp bat i keep ends on shelf.
: : This is the first time I've posted on this forum so I hope I can get some good advice. I have a 1952 Harry Ferguson tractor. A local mechanic of questionable skill converted the electrical system by installing a 12v alternator and a resistor. The starter just broke (cast iron housing on it broke) and I was hoping to replace it with a 12v starter. I think the only 12v starter available is for a TO-35. Will it fit my tractor? Also I obtained a volt meter today and found out that the voltage regulator is putting out 12v. Is this OK since it is the original 6v regulator? I've probably shown my ignorance as to electrical systems but maybe someone out ther can help me out. Thanks in advance!

: stay with a 6 volt starter 12 volts will not hurt
: it at all-- done it on old tractors and fork lifts for
: for over 25 years with no problems

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
