Scottsman Craftdeere engine swap

[RedPaul 50]

I need some wiring help.  I am swapping a Kohler CV16S from a Scotts (JD) in to a Crapsman YT 3000 that formerly had  A Briggs engine. PO of Crapsman forgot the part about checking oil regularly. PO of Scotts changed engine oil but didn't own a grease gun thuse entire front steering gear trashed.

Before you start throwing things at the screen, the resulting franken tractor (Scottsman CraftDeere?) is being donated for use in maintenance of a city park in the Mexican Town area of Detroit.

The company I work for donates time, people, and a storage area for park maintenance tools and equipment. Owner is Hispanic and doe gobs of stuff for the community both personally and through our company.

On to the question. 

I need to marry up the Kohler engine wiring with the Craftsman chassis wiring.

The Craftsman chassis has the following wires coming to the molex connector that used to connect to the Briggs engine.

Chassis Blue - Connected to Grey from the  Briggs

Chassis Blue jumperd to second hole connector - Connected to Red From the Briggs

Chassis Black and Black with white stripe - both to same connector hole - Connected to Black from the Briggs

Chassis Orange - Connected to Orange from the briggs

Chassis White - this wire did not connect to anything on the briggs

 

Kohler engine has the following wires coming from the engine going to Molex connector

2 Red - both go to same connection point

Yellow

Black

White

Can anyone tell me which Kohler engine wire goes to which Craftsman Chassis wire? 

Free Scotts Chassis with hydro (it would be a roller if the front axles weren't trashed) to whom ever can sort this out.

 

Thanks,

Paul

Your best bet will be to download the manuals for both engines and study them.

Got it to run finally, turns out that the Kohler I I swapped into the craftsman has to have 12 volt power to have a spark. I had not seen that before.  This thing is like a go-cart next to my 416-8. Fast, quick and very light on the steering.  If it wasn't already spoken for I would keep it as a trim mower.  I am now more motivated to finish up my little  12-38 XL Horse for trim duty. If it drives anything like this  it will be my go to mower for the smaller areas like the main front yard.
