Thank you.  It seems I may be missing a control box that would send / cut voltage to the solenoid at the appropriate times?
Thanks again!

Also,  I'd like to give it a test run and have a shop / service manual on the way but It's coming from the US so it will be some time.

Does anyone know how the throttle / stop mechanism works?

It seems to me that the throttle is connected to the large solenoid (#1) by linkage (#2) and is the stop lever the short lever by the arrow?

Without putting too much force on anything for fear of breaking / bending it nothing mentioned above seems to want to move freely - any suggestions?

Thank you!

I've got a 1973 SR3 with a winpower 15 kva gen head - trying to sort out some of the wiring for the electric start / charging system but I'm not having any luck locating much in the way of wiring diagrams. I've always been fond of listers and when this one came up for sale locally (within about 600 miles) I jumped on it.
It's set up as a 3 phase (120/208 volt) and the house is only single phase so looking to sort that out as well.
Have changed the oil and filter(Fresh 10W40 as sae 30 is quite rare in this part of Canada), air and fuel filters.
Is there any resource or diagram that anyone could point me to to help sort out the diagram (see last picture)?
Also, does anyone know the proper size belt for the dynamo/generator to charge the battery? My mechanic threw away the old, cracked one without noting the number.
Any suggestions or advice you have is also welcome!
Thank you!
