Hello Charles:

The Only Wire to be Hooked Up the this Engine are the Charging /Stator Wire/s and the Large Starter Wire from the Starter Solenoid that is Usually Located on the Machine the Engine is Mounted to. The Stator/Charging Wires are Connected According to the Charging/Stator Design of this Engine. The Following is a Site Addy for Testing Stators on B&S Engines and should Show How to Connect the Stator to your Unit. Send me the Complete Model and Type or Spec Numbers Off the Engine and the Mower Model Numbers, Please. With these I can Locate the Proper Manuals and Better Assist you. The Engine Model Numbers May be Stamped Into the Blower Housing (metal engine cover) Above the Spark Plug. The Mower Model Numbers are Usually Located Under the Seat on a Sticker on the Body of the Mower. You can View a Breakdown/IPL of the Engine at this Site Addy; http://www.briggsandstratton.com/maint_repair/manual_and_more/doclist.aspx?categ... and Enter the Model Numbers (XXXXXX) and the First 4 Type Numbers (XXXX) in the Appropriate Boxes and Click GO. Then Select Download PDF. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Have a Happy Holiday Season and May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Be Safe and Happy. Thanks.

Good Luck
