need starter and charging help

[Matt71 6]

I have 1961 suburban 551. It has a tecumseh h-70 motor on it. I would like to put a 12 volt starting system on it. If anyone could help me out with a parts list of what i would need and a link to a wiring diagram I would be very grateful, thanks!!!

Are there any electrical pieces on the engine now?

How close to me are you? :eusa-whistle:

this tractor was stripped of all electrical parts before i bought it, so i plan to buy what i need. I have found the starter online, i have an ignition switch and a starter relay from another tractor. so far thats all i have. Im not that far from you TT im in bellefonte.

That's not the tractor Don Ertley had stashed away, is it?

You should be able to grab just about everything you need for the engine at Millheim Small Engine.

I'll PM you with my phone number. If you get in a bind, give me a call.

No, I picked this one up in N.J about a year ago. Thanks for the info TT.
