ANSWER: Hello Lisa:

You can View a Breakdown/IPL of this Engine at this Site Addy, http://www.smallenginepartswarehouse.com/parts.asp and Select the Shop Online Parts Look Up. Then Select the Model Tab. Then Select the OEM and Enter the Model and Type Numbers. Then Double Click on the Model in the Results Area. Now you can Select the Section of the Engine you Wish to View. Once you Locate the Model numbers you can View the Mower at the Same Addy. Just Select Murray as the OEM and Enter the Murray Model Numbers. What Wires are you having Trouble Connecting? There is a Single Wire from the Coil/Magneto that is Connected to the Shut Off Wire from the Ign Switch. There is a Wire (can be Single or Double) that is from Under the Flywheel. This is the Stator/Alternator Wire. It May be Connected to the Starter Solenoid or the Ign Switch. If the Carburetor has a Solenoid in it; then this wire is Connected to the Ign Switch Wire that has Power Only when the Switch is in the Run Position. Can you Check the Model Numbers, Please. They Should be Similar to this Sample; 46379X71A. Hope this Helps. I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck

QUESTION: John, I went to the website that you suggested and the wiring diagram that they offered did not help me very much.  I need to wire up the entire engine.  The correct mower model # is 425009X8.
