First off :MTF_wel: Have you thought about installing the starter assist relay? You can read all about it here http://www.mytractorforum.com/showthread.php?t=129440 :fing32: If that isn't it maybe the starter itself is wearing out or the solenoid which I believe yours is a solenoid shift starter so you have to replace the entire thing. :goodl:
model 160 not starting
just got an older model 160 .It had not been ran in two years,so I cleaned the carb and replaced the old gas and battery it started right up. The next time I went to use it I turned the key and nothing happens no sound at all turn the key a few more times and then it started ,this has been happening for a couple months now.Went out this week and it didn't start and still hasn't no sound at all when I turn the key.I have replaced the ignition,and wiring harness. Any thoughts as to what my problem is?

As k91 posted the starter relay may solve your problem which is very very common in 100 series. The only thing that throws me a little is that you've replaced the ignition switch and wiring harness so also check the connection on the solenoid (purple wire) to make sure its clean.
