I'm no good at making diagrams on a PC, so I'll explain it. It's easy....

5 terminals on a relay. They are 85, 86, 30, 87, 87A.

85/86 are the control portion. One is power and the other ground. Doesn't matter which. Hook one to ground, the other to the powered ign circuit that used to run to the coil (originally).
30 is the "in" portion of the switch circuit. Ground this terminal.
87/87A are the "out" portion. 87 is normally open, 87A is normally closed. Hook the wire to the Mag to 87A.
Terminal 87 will not be used.

When you turn the ign on, it will open the ground contact to the mag and it will run. When you shut it off, it will close the contact to the ground and kill it. Easy peezy.

Since I replaced the hour meter with an oil pressure guage, I used the wire
that powered the meter to power the solenoid on the carb

Does it keep time as good as the meter did?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
