Starting fresh with solutions: It either has a Cutout relay and a Light switch controlled charge rate, or if it was purchased without lights, it might have a cutout relay with a field resistor. It could also have a Voltage regulator with possibly four wires on it (or three) and no light switch control of charge rate. If the needle is not moving it is (more than likely) not charging. If it is not it will not "hold a charge" because it isn't getting any (electricity from the gen). Slow charge the battery until it is fully charged. That might help, the starter. The starter can spin W/O engaging if the battery is low. Next, Not running, with battery installed (positive ground) and all wires connected, use a good jumper wire to jump between the Bat terminal and the Gen terminal on the cutout relay (or regulator). This should make a nice spark, but not harmful. Next start it up and run it at 3/4 throttle. Look at the amp gauge. if charging it is fixed! If not leave it running as above, and jump the Field (F) terminal on the Gen to ground. This should have a small spark and the gen should charge. If it does, the VR is either not grounded well, or the Charge control (light switch) L or H position is not functioning. The link will make it work! JimN

As I mentioned, it is so common that I have yet to buy a tractor that did not have JB Weld used somewhere. It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens
