Does anyone have a wiring schematic for changing a CA to solenoid start...I got my hands on a new Delco starter body...and it just has a post...not set up for the contact plunger most typical with CA C & B....don't want to purchase any more of those cheap contact switches unless I have to...and don't know if you can just purchase the "contact" post for the starter.It seems I got one from Steve at B&B yrs ago, but I don't see them available on his website.thanks.

My first question is, have you changed it to 12volt or is it the original 6? If you google Farmall Bobs wiring diagrams you should be able to adapt one of those to your tractor. Just pretend it says CA instead of H or M or whatever.
