I have a '74 with a 2.2 L with dual carbs. I just swapped the engine and used all of the same accessories as the last (running) engine. Now that everything is bolted up, I am trying to crank the engine and nothing is happening. Here's what I have:
Both large wires connected to connector 30 Single wire connected to connector 50 Fully charged battery Voltage reading from connector 30 to the vehicle floorboard When I turn the key, I hear the electric fuel pump kick on then get one click and that is all. I tried connecting a remote starter switch between 30 and the other large connector and got nothing. I also connected the remote starter switch between 30 and 50 and got nothing. Any suggestions on where to look next? Is the starter bad? It worked fine before. Thanks, Ken |

New ground strap there too. Hell, everything is pretty much new during restoration including new JWest fuse panel... I'm sure there is some loose wire or wires somewhere...
