Each end piece showed a .3 reading with an Ohm meter, and the center showed a 1 on the left side of the display(digtal meter). Did I check that correctly? Still would not start.

Would that be why it was hard to start those two times? We have a 4H hayride this Sunday and I need this tractor to start!
