Hello again--
Thanks for the recent help with my solenoid (2tractors, Gearhead210). I got the new one on and (I think) grounded correctly. Tractor started up, ran for about 5 min, then stalled.
When I try to fire it again, the motor turns over once, sometimes twice, then I hear a buzz. After just a few tries (with max 5 sec holding starter button in), the wire connecting the solenoid to the starter--and the posts in particular--get too hot to touch.
The battery is new, as is the solenoid.
Can someone tell me what it problem is/could be re the electrical system? ('ll work on the stalling once I figure out the starting.
(Be gentle; I am new to the tractor world, and the world of troubleshooting even simple machines.)
Thanks in advance--
