1st) the starter is turning the engine left:fing20: isn't the starter supposed to turn left so the engine can turn clockwise?
2nd) the engine would run great for 10 to 15 minutes and then shut off what would cause that?
3rd) tractor went to a guy and he made a mess of the wiring and the pto's wires are missing and the ignition wiring is

mg: I don't know!!!!!!!!!!

does anyone have the wiring diagram for a 125 or a manual?

Not understanding your 1st question....If the engine is starting, its turning the right way......it won't run backwards.

Engine shutting off.....Could be a few things,,,,,Coil over heating.....fuel filter plugging up...etc.

PTO....is just power to the electric clutch.....should be easy to rig something.

For a manual.........go to the Ford-Jacobsen group on Yahoo....

I'm a little confused on what the starter is doing. You said it's turning backwards? Only way I know how to get a motor to turn backwards is by switching the polarity. Positive to negative and negative to positive. You sure you have the battery hooked up correctly?
If you need a wiring diagram, let me know and I can e-mail you one. :goodl:

Even that won't make it turn backwards I believe.....The starter has to turn the right way for the centrifugal spline to cause the starter gear to slide up the shaft...........:banghead3
