OK so I spent today (finally got some good weather!) looking at the tractor and I believe my starter selenoid is bad. Even when I jump across the I and S terminals I get no power to the starter lead. I took it off and tested it with a small battery (8.2V RC Car battery) and I get 8.2V @ the I and the input when I connect it. If I jumper across the I and the S I still get 0 Volts to the starter side.
My next question is now where do I find a replacement? This is a Ford Selenoid? Can I bring it to Autozone and get a replacement or do I need to go to a Ford dealership (or a Ford tractor place)?
Thanks in advance! PS - I also removed all connections and cleaned them with a wire brush, the + and - battery terminals, the tractor ground, the push button to activate the starter (I removed it and tested it and it gets connection when depressed) as well as the back side of my ignition pull switch.
Unless my starter is bad too then with the new seleniod I should be good to go. Any way to test the starter without the selenoid?

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
