There was not a starter on it when I acquired it and now I don t seem to be able to get it wired properly. There are two large studs on the solenoid and two small studs. My problem is that I seem to have only three connections. One from the positive side of the battery, another that has a round connector to go on one of the large studs and a 14 gauge wire to go on one of the small studs. I think there should be one more as I can t get the starter to engine. Any diagram or help would be great, thanks [Reply]   [No Email]

I also hve the one small cable on the small post which is marked S. iS THIS CORRECT. [Reply]  [No Email]

The other small one is unused. [Reply]  [No Email]

The smaller wire with the large loop feeds the dash and the starter button and ignition switch. Nothing else goes on the other copper stud that the terminal that comes from inside the starter and fastens to the solenoid stud. If a Delco gas starter, the outer terminal with the small nut a wire would go from there to a resistor if the tractor is so equipped and I believe that the 30 series gassers were from the factory. the purpose of that terminal is to bypass the resistor on starts only to feed 12V direct to the coil [Reply]  [No Email]
