WELL, I figured out where my post went... LOL

I had written it pretty early on yesterday morning, I must've not been fully awake because I hit 'Preview Post' but I never hit 'submit' after

Well anyway, my suggestion was to completely replace the harness. The reason is that you're working on a machine that sat outside for who knows how long (plus it was modified for the Tecumseh engine). The old wiring harnesses have issues with water being able to get through the insulation on the wires. They might look okay on the outside, but underneath the wiring could be all corroded.

The least expensive option I found was Xtreme Motorworks https://www.xtrememotorworks.com/Par...Cub-Cadet.html at $85 for a 70/100 harness.

Then again, it is also possible to custom make a harness too, or combine new wiring with the existing harness. It all depends on what condition your wires are in. Here's the 70/100 wiring diagram for your convenience:
