Welcome to MTF!! (BTW--You started two threads w/ the same question--maybe you didn't realize and hit 'enter' again...Sometimes it takes a few minutes for soemone to come forward with an answer>>>..
o.K.--as to your question about the start--ing---try this...
(Remember--the tractor is over 20 yrs old)
1. Dis connect/clean with emory cloth or small wire brush every cable/wire connection--then re-tighten.....(Every one--also check fuse hol;der good--I had one that crapped out on me..)
That will eliminate that vexing problem....
2. Any plug togetjher connections--such as on switches/lights, etc, unplug them carfully- clean as good as possible--I spray w/ Quik-Electonic cleaner--let dry --re-assemble....
3. Now you can take a test light and ohm meter--and track down wire by wire. You should have a wire diagram, by color code--for that machine--either in parts manual or from TORO site...
It may seem like a rambling way to do it--but by a system-matic search--You will be fine..:thThumbsU
Let us know what you find--and ask more questions if needed....
