Left out in cold, so won't do what you want for you??  Heh!  Would think most of those type tractors have a little alternator seperate from engines? No?  Haven't a clue, so no help here. Parts easy to get at New Holland then?  I have looked at some of those way back, but never could spend the money or else it was kinda worn out and didn't want. I like the 3cyl better than the 2 also, not sure when that changed or models.

I'd love to have one of those.

Check the connections, have you load tested the battery, what is the voltage at the battery when it's running. Does it have a separate voltage regulator, generator or alternator?

Altenator , with regulator. Nice tractor. Voltage is good when running. Battery at 12.3 or so. Customer said battery was new recently, and it looks it. Starts fine with boost. Dash idiot lights very dim, but when you hook up cable, they get bright. So I cleaned the battery connections and idiot lights are bright now. So I think that will fix it. Charging , but not getting to the battery. Can't start yet until I get the oil in and filters back on.
How does one bleed the fuel system or do you have to, when it's restarted. ? Oil furnaces have to be bleed to get the air out, from what I remember. Changing fuel filter. Is there a port to open to allow air out from gravity or do you have to turn it over to get pump pressure.
Thanks for the help, Noel.

tires on backards again.. shoot!

   I would fill the filter full of fuel before you put it on save a big headache trying to bleed it out.

Thanks Pete, great idea. Noel

Luke, this tractor blows snow. Blower is mounted on rear. So more traction is needed in reverse than forward. Noel.
