Two problems: no spark at spark plugs and no crank when turning the key. (i had posted previously about this)
This time I had a multi-meter to test things. And a good neighbor with knowledge about the ignition system. We found power to the solenoid but nothing beyond it. The good neighbor said: "tap on it and try again". Lo and behold! We got crank.
Question: can the solenoid be fixed, or should i buy new?
I found this on this TY Co. website, matches what the tractor has:
Next we tested the spark plug wires - two out of three had NO CONDUCTIVITY. Good neighbor thinks the carbon is broken... What does that mean?
I'd like to buy new spark plug wires. Two are same length and one is longer. What do you guys recommend? Here's picture of what I have:
