The starter/generator spins, and spins the belt, but the motor doesn't turn over. When I first got the tractor, you had to jump it, but when you did, it started just fine. This was what got me to wondering if the starter motor could have gotten reversed, in the course of re-attaching wires, and why I attempted to change the polarity on it to check that.

Whn I get home this evening, I will double check which way the pulley is spinning, on the starter motor.
