Hi all, I have an electrical gremlin when trying to start my freshly built engine (304 block with Holley carby). It wants to run when I'm cranking it although when I stop cranking the engine dies. Keep the ignition in the cranking position and the engine runs. I thought maybe the live wire to the coil was possible dead in the "run" position although the voltmeter confirms I have 12 volts.
Is the attached diagram correct for my set up? The only thing I can think of is that I have an extra earth wire that is grounding the ignition signal to the distributor in the run position, which I will check tonight. My tachometer signal wire currently comes off the coil although I will change it over to the grey wire so I can program the rev limiter.
