Welcome to the Forum!
Take some time and read through a few threads to acquaint yourself with the Forum:
Don't know if you have any of the manuals to your Cub, but after your 2nd post on the Forum, you'll have access to the all the PDF Manuals on this site. There’s a few ways to do that:
You'll be able to download an Owner's Manual (very strongly recommended) and any service manuals that interest you. Implement Manuals are also available.
We’d encourage you to take the Safety Test located in the Safety Forum: http://farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=68084
Might also enjoy reading through this thread (even though it’s for a Cub, much can be applied to any tractor just brought home): What to do with a Cub you just brought home
There are a lot of good threads dealing with Cub repair and maintenance in the How To Forum (including MAGNETOS). Located here: http://farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=11
Take some pictures of your tractor and post them, we’d like to see them.
Remember:
• When you have a specific question, start a new thread in the appropriate sub-forum.
• Before posting, use the Preview button before hitting Submit--it'll show you exactly what your post will look like, including pictures.
• When adding your comments to a thread, be sure to look at the date of the last poster. If it’s more than a 6 months old, the posters are probably not going to see it. Consider starting a new thread.
Glad you joined us.

Don't know if you have any of the manuals to your Cub, but after your 2nd post on the Forum, you'll have access to the all the PDF Manuals on this site. There’s a few ways to do that:
- From a desktop or laptop, go to "Quick Links" in the upper left corner of your screen. Hit that and a pull-down appears where you'll find "PDF Manuals".
- You can also go to “Cub Info” in the upper toolbar, then hit “Rudi’s Manuals”. From there, you can access a variety of information.
- If you're using a phone, go to the "Links Directory" (second category down the main page). Once in "Links Directory" , scroll down to the second section "Tractor Parts & Manuals" and you'll find them there.
You'll be able to download an Owner's Manual (very strongly recommended) and any service manuals that interest you. Implement Manuals are also available.

Re: New member East Texas
Welcome to the Forum. Do you mean that an external coil has been added to bypass the magneto coil?

Re: New member East Texas
If someone bypassed the internal coil, there is a very good chance they removed the coil, AND the bar that goes through the coil and holds it in. I am rebuilding one for a forum member right now where that was the case, and its not the first time i've seen it. Those bars used to be Not Available unless you took one from a donor magneto, but now they are available at Brillman's. BTW, Brillman's has the best prices currently on J4 magneto parts. If you have never rebuilt a J4, there are several pitfalls you could fall in to from lack of awareness. You need to be really careful pulling the impulse coupling, there is a special puller and I strongly recommend it. You also need to know what you are looking at with the rotor and pinion concerning timing and wear. And oiling is accomplished by a wick system that always needs attention. Ask its of questions before you just jump in, these things can be expensive.
