Hi Hugh,
I went out and checked things out a little more closely and the bolt to the magnetic switch was loose, not to mention a bit dirty. Since this goes to the manifold heater, it might be just enough of a problem to cause the heater not to function properly. I didn't want to take the hood back off to check the actual connections on the other end or under the dash since it is pouring rain and I don't want it all to get wet.
My battery is a 770 cold crank/900 crank battery. I know, not enough. Tom has a high power battery for his camaro toy and he had asked if i wanted to use it. I still have the old cables, so I might ask if he'll help me connect his battery for a second boost. (what great ideas you have!)
Anyway, my junker car is sitting in his side of the barn next to his camaro and I'm thinkin' my tractor is a whole lot more important than that old car....
since I can't bring it in the house where the electric blanket is....per you guys who are no fun....at least I can get it in the dry barn if we get it started...then I can work on it this winter where it is light and dry. maybe get the wiring and all fixed right up!
I really want to take that starter off and see what it's looking like. But not in the rain. I noticed the cover for it is on upside down (I think) and the lid on the grease port flips open. Not a good thing, I'm sure.
I just gotta get the thing started enough to get that thermostat open...and get it in the barn or I'm gonna stew all winter. I'll keep in touch,
Diana

Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
