Ok, I finally got around to looking a little more in depth into my MF135 and I've found some problems...
Ok, first off, almost all my wiring is ruined!! After removing all the old electrical tape, I uncovered that only a few wires are actually being used and I'm missing several components!! The only wires hooked up are, 1-12v source to the key switch, from there to the nuetral switch then to the starter. The only other wires hooked up are one from the back of the alternator to the ammeter, which is where the 12v source to the key switch comes from...
Second, I think I have the wrong alternator and I don't have a voltage regulator or inverter at all!! Is this maybe a later model alternator with all this built in?

I checked voltage with the battery disconnected and the engine running, there was only 2 VDC. I'm thinking that there is supposed to be 12VDC on the exciter coil which is the white and red wire in the pic, is this right or am I way off?
Third, my fuel shutoff shaft on my injector pump is leaking pretty bad. I tried getting the gasket and o-rings to repair it from the dealer but it didn't show up on their parts fiche. Don't really know where to find these at, I read some other posts about this fix...
Fourth, and last for now, my MF135 has the dual auxillary dual control valve right under the seat. When I first got it, it had an obvious homemade blade on the front with a hydraulic lift cylinder that hit the front nose piece when it's lifted, it's permanently off now and those ports are plugged. The other one seems to operate the 3 point hitch while the original controls don't. Is this normal? Was this added later by someone else and they didn't do it right? Maybe someone has a hydraulic schematic I can look at.
Thanks in advance for any help guys. I really appreciate it.
P.S.: I hope nobody expects this to be a total restoration or anything to go fast, we are getting a new house and funds are extremely short right now, but I plan to fix what I can as soon as I can.
