Quoting Removed, click Modern View to see I wanted an 8 volt for my allis CA, and had to have NAPA order it. I installed it with the existing regulator and generator, and still had slow turning of the starter. I removed both battery cables going to put new cables, on, and found rust, and corrosion in the brass terminal where the cable enters the terminal, it didn't look bad, but I put it in the vise, and worked the cable loose, and found that the terminal was brass plated, but the inside was steel, and had rusted. I cut the cable off to clean wire, (about 1/2") and made a new terminal out of a piece of copper tubing, with the end squeezed flat in my vise, and drilled a 3/8" hole in it. I soldered the copper sleeve on to the cable end, and reinstalled it. When I put the battery and ground cable back on, the tractor spun the starter, like I was jumping it with a 12 volt. That made me pull the 8 vt out & replace my 6vt, which had tested good. the 6vt started it like it used to in the past. I swear, that I had cleaned both ends, of both cables before buying the 8vt bat, that I no longer need, but I missed that hidden rust. Years ago I used to drive old 6 volt fords,and chevies, and have put 8vt batts in them, and never had to change a thing, however now I wonder how many could have been poor cables.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
