I have a problem with the 6V starter on our H. It was working OK, but suddenly it seems to have gotten a short somewhere. I think the gear got jammed on the ring gear the last time it worked, but now all I get is a pop when I try to use it. I took it apart, and although I'm no expert, it seems that the issue is either worn brushes (they look pretty worn, but SEEM to be making contact), or the 'arm' that connects from the starter's post to the windings. So 1) would worn brushes cause a popping/short circuit? 2) What should the resistance be between the post and the starter housing when assembled? (I'm getting around 4 ohms, which seems wrong, but I'm not sure). 3) How do the windings connect to the post? What I have looks like a total hack. The 2 'arms' from the windings seem to just lie in the slot of the post. That can't be the way it's supposed to be. I think the one arm may be touching the commutator, because it's pretty bent up and looks a little 'scorched'. I tried to bend it back to where it goes around the housing nicely, but it's a little short to reach the post when I do that, and it still seems to have the short. Any initial ideas? Anyone have any pictures of a disassembed, good starter?

The Rescue of a Fordson F - by Anthony West. Introduction I live in the UK and have for many years restored Fordson tractors (in the main model N's).
