Thought I posted on this but can't find it! After I cleaned the contacts and charged the battery on the B, I installed a house light switch to replace the bad switch temporarily. When I pushed the starter rod the starter cranked nicely. Since the tractor still does not start I checked spark on all four cylinders and have none. So I went back to the beginning and that led me to the coil. The coil has the big center connector to the distributor and two small posts. The one small post has power when grounded to the frame. The other small post is a ground and I get no reading on my meter when I ground the poser post to it...should I??? I guess I am a little confused on how coils work and what all the posts are for and how they relate to each other. Does the coil need to ground through the second small post or can it ground through it's frame? Could the coil be bad? Thanks guys!
