WTF Lawn Tractor Part 2 - w/ pics

?

I don't get where the 4 nuts are supposed to go though...

OK NM I got the flywheel off and did what I needed to. Now the question is...do I have to do anything special to get it back on?

Make sure the woodruff key is in properly and you torque the flywheel to the factory spec.

Wonderful....

I definitely don't have the torque values...

AHH! I must have done something wrong...

I put everthing back together, and the thing won't start. When I crank it, it first jumps then stops, then it cranks, but it seems a little slower. I thought it might be the battery, but I jumped it and it still did the same thing. Please help!

What did you change? Points?

 

[Ornery]

Is there a good connection at the starter itself? Wire brush any corrosion away from the terminal and connector. Is there a relay? That may have corrosion inside. Can you jump straight to the starter, bypassing the tractor's battery and relay? This may have been the problem from the start.

Just a big thanks to everyone on the board who helped me get this done....it's running beautifully now! Thanks again!
