I believe I understand what you're getting at. I'll double check connections on the solenoid and do as you said with the relay. not sure when I'll be back to report on results. Thanks for the advice anyway.
Every port on the relay is good and the solenoid is getting power. I admit I haven't used a meter on it but it turns over when you short the circuit. As for the Coil, I haven't touched it
I'm fixing up a 1973 duster with a 1974 318 under the hood. Won't turn over unless the starter is shorted, won't start at that point. I suspect the ignition coil has gone bad but that shouldn't stop it from turning over...
It has a new starter, battery, and starter relay. all with good clean...
I have a 1973 Plymouth duster 340 that was recently swapped to a 318 with a set of hooker headers. There is no other exhaust on at the moment. Never worked with exhaust before and I need the best way to remove the driver side headers to get to the starter for replacement
