Rebuilding the starter motor on a Ford garden tractor is one of the jobs this 242-page Ford 100 service manual PDF (OEM ID 40010060) works through in full. Coverage spans the 100 to 195 lawn and garden tractor series, six models sold under both plain and LGT designations. Wiring diagrams trace the starting, ignition and charging circuits, while hydraulic schematics lay out the system along with its control valves and cylinders. The engine chapters split single and two cylinder units, each with governor and carburetor coverage, before moving on to the gear transmission, hydrostatic transaxle and hydrostatic transmission. Gap a new gasoline plug to .025 in. (.635 mm). Starter locknuts take 20-25 ft. lbs. (27-34 N.m). With your starter apart, you check the armature against a 0.005 inch (0.127 mm) out of round limit. Bookmarks mirror the chapter layout, so Starting System or Hydrostatic Transaxle is one click away, and the text layer finds any part name you type.
