Book Description

0879389494 978-0879389499 February 1, 2011 New Edition
How To Restore Tractor Magnetos is the essential guide to farm tractor electrical systems and offers the tractor restorer all the information needed to restore, repair and diagnose magnetos. Authored by the late Neil Yerigan, who was a master of working with vintage electronics, the book comprehensively covers how magnetos function as well as how to troubleshoot and repair common problems. The fine art of non-destructive disassembly is covered in detail and is a key ingredient to keeping your magneto (and your tractor) happy and running. Now back in print, How To Restore Tractor Magnetos includes sections on the most common magnetos, including those made by Wico, American Bosch, International Harvester, Fairbanks-Morse, Case, Eiseman and more. Also included is voltage regulator field repair and testing, electric starter motors, and wiring advice. Yerigan augments the book s technical detail with anecdotes about the trials and tribulations of day-to-day life in his state-of-the-art (for 1936) south Minneapolis electrical repair shop.

4.0 out of 5 stars A classic, back in print, August 14, 2011
By 
Excellent, step-by-step descriptions and photos of how to repair a huge variety of magnetos. Also includes a good general description of basic electrical systems. The late Mr. Yerigan's expertise was matched by his helpfulness, and his book is a good reference for anyone who didn't have the opportunity to ask questions of him in person.
