I can keep this tractor related, even! When I was very young, I loved the smell of gasoline and I would step up on the plow drawbar of my Dad's Allis B, take the cap off the gas tank and smell the fumes. I swear gasoline does not smell as good nowadays as it did even 30 years ago. Fortunately, I didn't take but a whiff each time so it left no l l l last t t ting damage! At about the same time (I was about 8 or 9) we had some neighbors who had a whole passel of kids, all except one of whom walked to the same one-room schoolhouse that I attended.

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
