JDS. Read your post on starter problems. Got to wondering if your starter uses a SHIM PACKAGE? if it does , the possibilities could center around the shims. Keeps the starter from fully enguaging the fly wheel. Does it (when installed on the tractor)Does it turn freely,when in the start mode? How difficult is it to manualy turn the ring gear(flywheel) when the clutch is depressed?Any Play in the flywheel,like bolts loose? You stated the starter makes A THUMP when you try and enguage it electrically,wonder if the Starter relay is so weak that UNDER LOAD against the flywheel, it hasnt the power output to enguage and turn the starter over under a load.Could it be a LOOSE connection between the ignition,amp meter,to starter?I would remove the spark plugs to eleviate the compression ratio against the starter enguagement. The reason I suggest this route is maybe the cylinders are loaded with fuel causing a higher compression in the engine and causing a drag against the starter. If that is the problem of not enough power to the starter, possible cause could be a weak starter relay. Starter would turn over with out any problem if benched checked. Another thing to check would be a GOOD GROUND to the tractor. Hope this helps. LOU.
