Ok I've got a craftsman LT1000 I'm wiring up for a push button, I did 2 tractors already so I know how to do them, but the LT has the 16hp OHV with the 2 wires coming from the carb. How do I wire that up? Thanks carburetor

Should be only one wire from the carb, it needs power to let gas in the carb.
One wire from the coil, hook to ground to kill engine
two wires from the generator/stator under the flywheel, one to charge battery, one to run headlights.

you can do away with the carb wires but you have to take that plug out and cut the needle inside off

Typically, a wire goes from the magneto to the ignition switch and then to the fuel solenoid,that's how you kill your engine. But if your putting a push button ignition on, you can wire the two wires together or cut the point off.
