Hi,
Last saturday I went to the Dutch Cavalry Museum for the first test drive in their Staghound after major repairs. I had rebuild the two Hydramatic transmissions after miss-use a couple of years ago. The transmissions were ruined trying to load the Stag on a trailer using only one engine.

When the first transmission failed they started the second engine and then ruined the second transmission as well.

Both engines were also rebuild as they were out off the vehicle anyway.
After some inspections we fired up both engines and drove off. Suddenly sparks came from the left engine's flywheel! The starter motor had developed a short somewhere and engaged itself unwantedly. We switched off the left engine and test drove the right powerplant first. After disconnecting some of the wires on the left starter motor and briefly putting power on it we started the left engine again. After a short drive both engines started to overheat and blew coolant from the radiator caps... Well, at least the transmissions worked.




Does anybody have a wiring diagram for the Stag? The museum has some manuals but no wiring diagram. Help much appreciated!
Cheers,
