How do I check my S/G to see if it is charging?

Thanks, Roland;
I will do these tests. My amp gauge shows charging now but how much I can't say. I have been having trouble starting the 301 kolar. When I pull the plug and crank it over I get no spark until I let off the switch then I have a couple good sparks. Makes me think the starter is pulling too much juice or the battery, which is new, in not being charged enough. Russ |

For a quick test of ignition switch run a jumper wire from the positive post of battery to plus side of the coil and try starting it. If it starts right up you will need to replace the ignition switch. Also check the points , if the gap is way off or the points are burnt replace the points and condenser and set the timing.

Well, I got it running again. It was neither starter nor switch, let me give a little history on this. When I first got the tractor I put a new battery in it. My son in law wanted to help so he put a battery charger on it over night. What he did not do was turn off the key, yup, boiled out the coil, points and condenser along with some wires. I thought I found them all but not quite, the one from the switch to the coil at the switch was the one I missed. It did run for awhile but the wire broke. The reason I was getting no spark.
Thanks for all the help. Russ |

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.
