Wooo Whooo!!!! Put the new starter in and it fired right up on the first push of the button like it use too. So after I got the fire back in her (due to grounding through the dizzy. ) I guess it was just the spark plugs all mixed up.
But thanks again for all your help.
It's up for sale if anyone is interested. Let me know!!!

I have a 1950 8N tractor and 5' Taylor Brush Hog (with service manual) let me list all the new parts with in the last year.
suspension seat with side guards (worth its weight in gold)
cap
rotor
wires
plugs
points
condenser
coil
battery
oil cap
alternator (life time warranty)
(brand new this week) starter
oil gauge
amp meter
prof meter (it broke with only a few hrs on it Tractor Supply said they will exchange it for free since it has so few hrs on it)
proof meter cable
ignition key on/off
gas cap with gauge
PTO Shaft
I do all the repairs and preventive maintenance even before it's called for. This is a good running and strong tractor. Starts right up even after sitting awhile. Even in the winter time!!! The tires are amazing!! I'd say 90% all the way around. Under gas tank insulated. Solid steel front bumper. Very solid tractor. No rust except surface in just a hand full of places. The bush hog cuts great!!! blades and gear box in great condition too.
Now the not so good ( these aren't too bad but I want to let you know up front) Hydraulics work but have a slow leak down. I have chains on the back so once I get it to the level I want I put the hydraulics all the way down so I don't have to put extra stress on the hydraulics (something I think everyone does). Then like I mentioned the proof meter. And lastly the tail wheel could be replaced.
This tractor would be great to make a few extra bucks on the side.
$2600.00 OBO (FYI not in a big hurry to sell so no low ballers)
