    Cub Cadet 1250 starting issues.

    I have a Cub Cadet 1250 that will not start. I checked the battery out, and it is fine. the starter solenoid clicks when starting, so i changed it. That did nothing to help. I was looking at everything, and the coil was very hot. Could it be the coil or maybe something else? Thanks everyone!
