A couple days ago I posted a few questions about the arrangement of the ignition system on a 656. It acted like it wasn't getting strong enough spark to start while cranking and I questioned the resistor arrangement. This thing has electronic ignition.
I talked to the shop foreman at a CIH dealer and he told me the resistor should NOT be connected when an electronic ignition is installed. I've never had any experience with add-on electronic ignition so I was groping in the dark for an answer.

The owner said he didn't use this tractor last winter because it was such a pain to start. He might not use it this winter either, but at least now it's ready if needed. Jim
