How to start an SE50 motor, not mounted to the frame

Post by arick793 »

I have an SE50 motor in my basement that I'm "rebuilding". I'd like to get it running before I try to mount it in the spree, but the wiring has me a little confused. How can I wire up the coil, and the electric starter and bystarter? Thanks for any help!

Connection wise: The service manual is available on this site.

Execution wise: Get a spare wire harness, cut off the connectors, and wire up the needed circuits. That way all the correct connectors are present to tie in to the engine and electrical accessories (coil, cdi, stator, bystarter, start button, starter relay, kill switch, +12v Main switch)
