Since it looks like it leads to the sparkplug end of a vert and it's long enough to touch the frame, my guess is it's the kill switch for grounding out the plug. B)

[combatmp29r 27]

Yep I concur Jason, and it looks like its made from one of thos emetal rails you can rack sockets on. B)

[Rollerman 290]

This is obviously a sacrificial anode designed to prevent the tractor from rusting...... B)

I think it's to pull the plug wire off not ground it.

If'n 'at dare thang wuz metal an' wood grownd out the plug, I woodent touch it, it mite bite!

Gonna keep us in suspense Bill?

The White Part Is A Pice Of Plywood That Has Been Cut Into A Stick & Has Black Electrical Tape Holding It Onto The Plug Wire. Most Likely Used To Remove The Plugwire From The Plug Hence Killing The Engine, Just Like Karl Said!

Yup, that's exactly the way I see it.

Oh. the old "Hillbilly" kill switch.

Very common here in Kentucky

And when there's a string tied to the stick,

Its the "Hillbilly" remote control kill switch

[DMESS 24]

Fess up Bill, YOU made that part! B)

[BPjunk 184]

Like the post title is "Ifn's ya' ain't got the right part make one!"

The old owner of the tractor did not have a ignition switch on the tractor so this is the ON/OFF switch. Ya' simply pull on the white stick to pull the plug wire off so's ya' don't get shocked! <_<
