Alright, I got the engine bolted down and all the wiring and linkages connected. I'm having an electrical issue though. Let me tell you guys what I've done.
When I turn on the key, I have no idiot lights on. Usually, there will be a low oil, and low amp at least. I found a wiring diagram and traced a few things. First, I found that I have 12 volts to the key switch on the black wire (comes from the solenoid through the fuse). Coming out of the switch, in the "run, lights" position, I have 3 volts to the voltage sensor. I thought this should be 12 volts.
I also checked the low oil pressure idiot light in the indicator harness with the key in the "run, lights" position and found that it also only had 3 volts.
I measured the voltage across the battery to be about 12.3 volts or so. Confused but thinking I may have a dead battery (it's a brand new 2660), I jumped the tractor to another battery, cranked it, and the engine fired right up. It was a beautiful sound, let me tell you. I let it run for about 5 minutes, thinking the battery was just low but figuring the tractor would keep running on its own now. It died immediately.
I'm pretty sure I have everything hooked up correctly, but I could use a few suggestions. I could post pics of specific wiring if need be.
Also, I was going to post wiring diagrams but to make them the right size the text wouldn't show up. If someone wants, I could email them if you contact me via PM.
