Gents, I need some expert advise. I have no power to the starter and it's brand new. (the last one lost its return spring tension and it got chewed up by thr flywheel, it also did not have power). I am aware that there is no relay from the ignition to the starter. From what I can see it looks like the starter is wired directly to the ignition. My ignition is also new. 72 510 4 door, L18, 5 speed and what looks like an automatic engine bay harness that I bought for 30 bucks. I have extra wires that go to the neutral safety switch which are currently not being used. The 2 problems/solutions I can think of is:
1). Attach a neutral safety switch (because of automatic harness)
2). Drop of voltage to starter, buy hotwire relay kit.
A part of me wants to replace the entire harness for an updated one from painless (I have done this to my 69 Cobra) but it's extremely time consuming.
Your thoughts and/or advice is deeply appreciated.
