SV,
George didn't tell anyone make and model of what he is working on, so you couldn't look at any wiring diagram. It is not uncommon for lawn and garden tractors to run the battery positive cable to a remote solenoid, as in the case with his. The starter only sees 12 volts when the solenoid is engaged. Thus, there is no direct 12 volts at the starter, so he is correct in saying it does not have direct 12 volts at the starter. He doesn't say if the solenoid is available to connect the charger positive there and use the frame for the ground point, avoiding the need to access the battery, as was your point about going to the starter to charge.

And were your components to build the little jumpers really free? If you paid for them at any point in time, they were purchased, not free.

He was a farmer by birth and a farmer by choice, and like many returning soldiers, he was our silent hero: without medals or decorations, but with a certain ability to survive. It was on his farm that I learned to use the combination hand clutch and brake on a John D
