Looking for part #12 I'm unable to adjust my throttle. The "pencil like arm piece":confused: that connects to the throttle adjuster above the steering wheel has completely rusted out on one end. Meaning I can push the throttle one way, but can't pull it back the other (won't stay connected) I...

Ferguson TO30 Z129(converted to 12v long ago)...Can't seem to get a spark out of my 12v Ignition Coil into my Distributor..I've tried two different new coils same result...measured 12v going into pos coil connection(12 volts coming from key ignition switch to pos coil post) ..tested both...

Replacing my 12v Ignition coil on my Ferguson TO30 Z129...I've just installed my 2nd 12v ignition coil and I'm still not getting a spark out of distributor side of the plug wire. I've tested the ground on the coil and I've got nearly 12 volts(11. sumt'n) going into the coil..Whats the proper...

I have a TO30 Z129 that has been converted to 12v. I recently purchased a 12v ignition coil that I'm unsure is the correct part. My new coil states that an external resistor is required, which my previous coil didn't have. This is the link to the coil I just bought...

I'm making a wiring harness for an already 12v converted Ferguson TO30 Z129 using a ford 1g alternator. I've read a lot about the delco 10si alternators on here and have seen the wiring diagrams using them. Pretty simple, my concern is the delco and the ford 1g both have a BAT post, however the...

This is a pic of the 12v alternator on my TO30 Z129..it doesn't fit the description I'm getting from some as far as the P1,P2, and BAT connections. What I'm seeing is a BAT, GRD, and FLD..and a STA that never had anything hooked up to it before. I'm quite a newbie and am just trying to wire the...

Just slapped my TO30 back together after carb rebuild, new sediment bowl,fan belt, and replacing a lot of electrical, i.e., plugs,dist.cap/rotor, ignition coil,dash ignition, and just about every wire on her. Before I started this work it was a bear to start, couldn't get fire to her. I'd have...

While rewiring my TO30 Z129...I've had an extremely difficult time locating a new diode for the wire going to my lights. I've been to four automotive stores and radio shack to no avail. Old one is operational but rest of the line is very old. I didn't recognize this line had a diode when I...

Hello all , coming to you from the Sunshine State. I'm a proud owner of a 1953 TO30 that I've been using for several years now. I'm giving it a bit of an overhaul now and can't wait to get back on her. I've really fell in love with this little darling and look forward to adding another Ferguson...

My TO30 has a 12v alternator(3wire)and an Echlin VR32 voltage regulator. I have replaced all the wiring. My question is the proper wiring for the two starting posts and the ammeter as well as the one wire off the alternator that (grounds?) in this general area. Does the wire that comes off the...
