I was just out riding along in the M, using the sickle, cutting oats. Turned tractor off to check sickle because a bolt had come off near the end and I just put a new one in. Looked good. Got back on and tractor wouldn't even turn over! I just re-did ignition and wires and things and it was starting unbelievably good. What could be wrong? It is sitting on a slope pointing uphill. It rained this morning and I had a cup over the muffler. I forgot to turn off pto before turning off the tractor. Any of these matter? I'm trying to think what I could have done wrong. When ignition switch is pulled out, I see the ammeter move a little, so I think that is ok. Starter switch seems to be doing nothing. Could rain have messed something up? Wires on starter switch look good and tight. I had started it maybe four times within the hour before it quit starting. I don't know what could be wrong. Any ideas?
