I have a 354 jinma tractor that is blowing the main 30 amp fuse. I was using the tractor and everthing was running normally. I shut it down for some lunch and when I came back to start it up that is when it started blowing the fuse. When i turn on the switch the power comes on but when I go to start mode , fuse pops. The tractor is in neutral and the clutch is in to engage the switch. I suspect maybe it might be the starter solenoid.
Any ideas on what my problem might be?
Thanks

Mine did that and it was the voltage regulator not making good contact in the socket.
