You said " Evidently has to be bad battery at this point? " When I replied to your first post, I said: Next, make sure your battery is fully charged. Don't guess; put it on a charger. You need a strong battery to: 1. Close the solenoid 2. Spin the starter 3. Engage the bendix 4. Provide voltage to the coil. As the battery gets weaker, the first thing to fail is your spark. If the battery is almost totally dead, all you will hear is the solenoid clicking. So..... ..... Did you do that? Is the battery fully charged? There is a reason I suggested that & said to do it first, before you proceeded any further. No matter how will you install things or how good the parts are, the tractor will NOT start w/o a good battery. Check out tip # 39 as Harold suggested. Then check out tip # 43. Jump it; the battery in the tractor will probably have enough current for the ignition circuit AFTER you charge it. The jumper battery will spin the starter. Post back w/ more questions or results.
