kudzu3 323 #4 Posted September 10, 2018 Thanks Garry. If you're asking if it is a magneto, I really don't know what that means . I'm assuming that 8362 is the part # I need. Thanks for the help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ebinmaine 62,990 #6 Posted September 10, 2018 10 minutes ago, kudzu3 said: I haven't taken it out yet Eric, I'm assuming that is standard switch, Thanks Back in the 60s there were tractors that had no solenoid for the starter and the ignition switch only had three posts. If your tractor has a solenoid, it should have a 5 post ignition switch. To check it to see if you have a Magneto style switch, when you pull it out ... see what the posts are labeled as. Then we could try to help you out a little further. You want to make sure that you do not put a switch for a Magneto tractor in if you don't need one. The electrical system shut off is backwards. I would absolutely believe what Garry has written. He's very very good. Just make sure that a previous owner has not modified the tractor. They were a lot of people that have done some weird things over the years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,130 #7 Posted September 10, 2018 1970 Raider would have had a Tecumseh Engine and a 5 pole magneto ignition switch. Does you engine have a big decal Solid State Ignition?? Like this one. If so and it hasn't been modified you need a magneto type switch Terminals will be B M S R A (or L). You do not want one that has an I terminal (Ignition). That would fry your solid state ignition module and that my friend is a very expensive problem if you can fins a good used one about $125-150 or conversion for almost as much 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can be a costly mistake if the wrong one is used. If in doubt ask questions. Garry 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
