Default Back hoe
I'm trying to get my brothers back hoe running. It has a K341 Kohler #71147. With a spark tester, it only fires when you let off the switch and only once. Before I got the hoe, they put new switch and they cut the plug off. I don't know if they put the wires on right.

Prolly is it not wired correctly.
If the plug was cut off, I'm hoping the switch at least has screw terminals??
To run, it needs power to the + side of the coil when in start and run position.
Also needs power to the solenoid in start position.
In the stop position, no power is applied to the coil or solenoid.
That should get it running.
Just use your meter to determine those positions on the switch.
Most "will fit" switches have terminals marked with:
Battery,
Run,
Start,
and Stop,

If they are made for a magneto ignition. ( that terminal is grounded in the stop position)
Your going to have to determine what components the wires lead too, by following them and using your meter, checking for continuity.

This is NOT within the Kohler engine. This IS in the wiring of the OEM tractor.

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.
