I have a Prime Line part #7-01861-1 on my 882 and have had no issues in 5 years. Just Google that number and you will see a bunch of people selling it.

A starter relay isn't designed for the amp load of a glow plug. A glow plug relay is a better choice. They look identical to a starter relay, but are made much heavier.... and cost more.

I would disagree. The 1772 use 925-3090 Circuit Breaker for their electrical system which is rated at 40 Amps. The starter on a 1772 is going to draw a whole lot more than 40 amps to roll over the engine.

I ran a Ford solenoid for my glow plugs and never had a problem. I also bypassed the glow plug indicator in the dash as well.

A starter RELAY solenoid is a relay whose job is to engage the main solenoid on the starter. They are only rated at like 15-20 amps. You guys who are saying you use a relay solenoid may be using a starter solenoid, not a relay. No, I am not going to spend an hour looking up different part numbers to prove it. Just make sure you get a solenoid rated for at least 40 amps.

Glow plug relay's tend to have a higher duty cycle too.

My experience is that an auto/truck starter pulls many, many, more amps
than glow plugs.
Now I do admit most are not designed for continuous operation, but glow plugs are not continuous operation either.
--Just my thoughts.

I disagree. The size of the starter solenoid lugs (usually 1/4" x20) and the battery cable size (4 to 6 Gauge) are there for a reason.

I think J-mech is talking about a relay placed in the circuit between the ignition switch and the starter solenoid. The ignition switch would power the relay which in turn would power the solenoid. I've never seen this type of setup but I'm guessing he has. Such a relay would only have to handle the current draw of the starter solenoid coil, not the starter load.

Possibly we are all saying the same thing but our terms are where the problem is.
A heavy duty sol. that makes contact for starter motors in vehicles are going to handle several hundred amps.--- IE: Ford type sol. and a boat load more applications.
A relay that is designed to activate the pull-in- coil, of a starter sol. handles much less amps.
Many styles of relays as most know, are avail for various applications.
I, as well as many people interchange the term sol/relay.
The dictionary/google seems to also muddy the 2 terms.
Bottom line, if the rating of the contacting device is adequate, it should hold up to the riggors of the task

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.
