MuleMacs M561 rebuild and restoration thread.

[MuleMac01]

So looking at this again... and reading the 20P and 34p i can't find any part numbers on the wiring harness for the tractor. I see the diagram but it doesn't give me a number for the whole thing...can anyone help maybe I'm reading it wrong...

Also looking at the wiring in the engine compartment im missing the coolant temp sender wire, and oil pressure sender wire.. and alternator wire. Looking at the military wire tag ID PDF, I think that big plug connects to the engine harness. It looks like that's missing from this engine..

I was hoping to get this started today but that's probably not going to happen.

Also all my dash gauge wires are sun dried and the rubber is cracking off... and the previous owner pulled them all out and lost the cover for it.

The wires for the panel where the push button starter and switch are looks ok..

In all I need a new tractor harness bad..

Can I start it with what I got or is the missing wiring harness for the engine going to hurt me?

Thank you for some reason my hard copies don't have it listed... but the PDF does.. weird.

As I stated in my previous post you are missing the alternator wiring harness that connects to the tractor harness, that loose large round plug.

I wouls suggest downloading the TM's from the Steel Soldiers. They might be more up to date.
