Hello from Glen Allen, VA
Found a 1970 147 that was a single owner tractor stored in a barn. It was last used 2003 and was very well maintained by its first owner. The 147 came with all original paperwork, manuals, owners notes, a deck, supporting frame, rake and cultivator attachments. It has taken me a few months to get it running as the fuel tank and carb were filled with old fuel/sludge and the wiring harness was toast. I have enjoyed reading the posts on this site and look forward to contributing. I want to know is it really necessary to remove the engine to properly install the new harness?

NO, you do not need to remove the engine for wiring replacement on a 147. Where did you come up with that?
Get hold of Mike Lamar for the replacement harness. He's a member to OCC, and his harnesses are second to none. Oh, and welcome to OCC... We like pictures you know.

Learned enough to know I've not learned enough
Thanks for your comments and suggestions. Since my initial post I have installed a new wiring harness and have proven that it is difficult, but not impossible, with a little common sense. I used the old harness as a pull for the new harness around the flywheel. One of my lessons learned was checking the solenoid mount for a good ground. Since then I have been using the tractor and the rake attachment. My next move is to determine the best way to adjust the hydro. I've been reading the comments on this site to help me figure it out. With a narrow frame , I've got to do it from below and it does not sound easy with the tractor running and me underneath. I'll ask the folks on the site what techniques they have used over the years to accomplish this adjustment.

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.
