IH 574 gas
Well decided to start my 1974 IH 574 gas this morning (been sitting idle for 2 months) and no dice. Battery is fully charged and the starter is fine ( jumped the starter and it fired right up). When I shut it off and then try to restart I get nothing. I am thinking either a bad ignition switch or bad clutch relay switch. Any other thoughts or suggestions? Also how could I test the ignition switch to determine if that's the culprit.

Get out the VOM and test that switch and relay.

Thanks. I wasn't sure if there was any other components inline. Turned put to be a shot clutch relay. Now does anyone know what the voltage output for the alternator should be? I am getting 12.07 at the alternator.

I think it's bad and need to replace. I did a search and am finding many options. Any ideas of a good replacement?

I have the industrial version of the 574 mine is the 2500 and i bought a universal alternator works great.Its the same Tractor just built heavier.
