My C is going to be used for a trail mower at a friends place so will be used by a couple different operators. I thought it would be a good idea to convert it to push button start as the contact rod is a little tough to operate.
Does the contact thingy in the starter just unscrew? Can I just replace it with a stud? I thought someone would have a conversion kit but I haven't been able to find anything, so I was just going to hook up a ford style solenoid to a push button switch. Run the lead to the starter and call it good. Just have to finger out how to connect at the starter.
cheers,
Creek

You'll have to swap starters that stud comes out from the inside its just about the part to come out whe you get to removing the stud only the field magnets are left.

I have one that is already set up for what you want to do. If you have time and want to do it, I would trade you starters. I need one for the original set up. We can ship in a USPS flat rate box for about $20.00. PM me if you want to do this and I will give you my phone number or give me your phone number and I will call you. Den
