Hey guys. I finally got another 3800 in. But I seem to be having starter wiring issues.
First off, with it hooked up the way it is now, it is not even trying to turn over.
The Low Coolant and Oil lights are very dim. When I remove the starter and turn the key on the lights are fine (which lead me to believe there is a wiring problem) AND the fuel pump does not come on with it hooked up as is now and the gas gauge shows full.
I have 4 posts on the starter. The two big ones and two little ones. The one little one has a tag on it. The one big one has massive wires going into the starter solenoid and that leaves me with the one big one and the one little one.
I have a massive black thick wire, two red ones, and the one little purple one. I'm sure that the one little purple one goes onto the little terminal at the bottom.
However, I also have two other lurking wires that are black that pop out of the harness a couple inches away from where all the others come from. I'm not sure what's ground, what's hot, and what terminal they all go on.
I have it hooked up where the little purple wire (trip wire?) is on the little post and all the others are on the big post with two lurking wires (assuming ground) idk where they go ive tried them on the starter bolt and the flywheel cover bolts but nothing has fixed it.
I've put a whole motor in and got this ding damn far and now something as simple as starting it wants to be a PIA!!!
Any help I can or diagrams or anything??
Thanks
