Disconnect kill lead,at ign sw,with ign sw off,check from ign terminal to dash AND body of sw with ohmmeter or powered test lite,reading should be 0 ohms or you should get a light,you may have rust or paint between sw body & dash or a bad ign sw,also check for continuity between battery neg & dash where ign sw mounted,you may have a loose or high resistance connection between dash & chassis,if all of above checks out best guess is you have a bad wire terminal somewhere in harness.Try this,locate & disconnect ign kill lead where it exits eng,start eng,ground kill lead to eng with a jumper,if eng dies,problem in wiring harness or on tractor,if eng doesn't die,problem on eng(bad terminal on wire,loose connection at coil,or possible broken wire between tab on coil & windings inside coil)
