After I posted this, I saw I had posted it in wrong forum, as I said I'm new! I didn't know how to switch it or if you could at this point, or delete it and start all over in the right forum.

I followed it to the other end and it's grounded to the tractor and that other end looks like it's never been attached to anything??? Maybe some accessory that this one didn't have I'd have to guess... That screw I loosened and then retightened though, I believe is a way to adjust the carburetor so I hope I haven't messed that up (BTW I screwed it all the way in then backed it off one turn and a half, does anyone know what that should be???)

Since I last posted, I ran a ground cable from battery to starter bolt and voila, it cranked & started. So, now I need to get a new cable wired up, I'm thinking that was my whole problem.
