I decided to do some more checking on the starter today. I was surprised to find continuity between the main lead which attaches to the selenoid and the case. I disassembled the starter and the ungrounded brush leads also had continuity to the case. I had performed this test a few engine hours ago and it was open. The grommet was in place no problem there.
There must be a bare wire in the windings touching the case or pole. I have been trying to find this problem from a year ago when we got the tractor.It had been an intermittent problem.
Now it will get a different starter.
