Won't crank...tries but acts like not enough battery. Replaced battery & starter still won't turn over. Pulled INJECTORS and it turns over just fine. No funny noises, injector pump working. Replaced injectors...still won't crank.

I have Electrical Wiring Diagram for FT-60 if anyone needs.

Jumper the starter and see if it will spin over.

What Gator said. The only thing left is wiring or the switch. Better to test than to just throw parts at it.

Proper cranking speed = battery + starter + CABLES. No mention yet about your cables/connections. I would go there before worrying about switches and wiring.

I'd be cleaning and brightening ALL the connections. Are you even sure your 'new' battery is any good? Did you load test it?

I replaced the starter on my 2003 and made new battery cables. That resolved the slow turnover problem on my tractor. Cranks right up everytime with nice RPM even in the winter.
