I posted weeks ago about two situations that happened together while using the 850. One, I drove into a branch that poked a hole in the radiator and the fan was blowing coolant back around the engine. Two,
the engine sputtered and died before I could get back to the barn. I don't think this had anything to do with the hole in the radiator, because it only lost about half of the coolant. For weeks the tractor has sat in
the shop without even a click or anything when I turned the key, but yesterday it started as though nothing was wrong. Today it will do nothing again. I replaced the radiator today, and I sought to start the
engine to circulate the coolant but to no avail - just a click or two from the solenoid. So, I put on a new solenoid - still won't crank. The battery is good and fully charged, new radiator, new solenoid - can't
figure it out. Electrical problems completely stump me. How can I trace down the problem?
