I Have 2- 11 hp briggs L head engines both on different Lts 1 is on a John Deere 111 and the other is on a Simplicity 4211 neither has head lights and so I have a single wire coming from the alternator/stator. The 4211 sat all winter with a battery in it and still had power enough to start it this spring after a few small mowing duty"s It sat for a week in the garage and went out and the battery was dead. it was an older battery so I put in a new one and mowed my small yard with it ,put it away and the next time I go to use it the battery is stone cold dead . I recharged the new battery and noticed a constant drain on the battery and tracked it down to , If the stator/alternator is plugged in ,when I hook up the battery it sparks .Instant draw . if I unplug it , no draw. I"m putting an engine on the 111 and when I took it out of the donor it worked fine ,now when I hook up the battery it snaps like the 4211 , unplug it(the stator wire) and no snap. So finally do I have 2 bad stators , two bad diodes or is something going funky with my solenoids. If I un hook the stator wire both will fire up and run fine just no charging. Sorry this is so long. Any thoughts? I don"t have a multi meter , maybe time to get one? __________________
