I have 2 old Farmall tractors (actually 4 but two in particular) - one is not running. The other has a starter problem. I want to take the starter out of the 1st and put it in the 2nd. Trouble is the one I want to replace is mechanical lever energized and the one I want to put in was started by push button which was wired direct - battery to switch, switch to starter. I bought a new heavy duty push button ($17 at NAPA) and was planning to make a mount for it. But now I'm thinking instead of running battery cables to and from the switch, I should be thinking about installing a starter solenoid - but it would have to be real heavy duty cause these are 6 volt tractors. Any thoughts ?
