Trouble w/ EZ-wiring Harness and SBC
It's the first time that I have attempted to use an EZ-wiring harness..... and apparently it isn't as "EZ" as they claim. I'm trying to use their 21-circuit version and because they are set up for later model vehicles, I'm having a lot of trouble.....and maybe it isn't the harness.
Basically what I've got is a 4 prong ignition switch. I have the wire labled "starter" going to the ST on the switch. the other labled starter to the Mini Starter. I have the main power from the battery going to the Batt prong. I have the wire labled accesories going to the ACC prong and I have the two wires labled "coil pwr" and "Pwr to ignition" going to the IGN. prong on the switch. I also have a coil wire coming off my starter solenoid , going to the coil.
I am using a Mallory Uni-lite distributor.
So what my problem is, is that when I turn the key to Start, the motor will fire up, but when I let off the starter the motor will die. As if the coil is not continuing to get power after the starter is disengaged. I'm assuming that I am missing something with the harness, or I have something wired wrong at the solenoid. I messed with a bunch of combinations this afternoon and none of them solved the problem.... any ideas? Thanks.
He definitely moves around! A MIA Happy Birthday, Tech!
