Gentlemen,
I have installed a gear reduction starter on my 73 TR6 (awesome difference, like a starter on steroids) and have found the straw that broke the camels back on my stock starter. I had disconnected the ballast resister wire connection at the coil and the white/yellow wire at the starter and had run a separate white wire to the coil in order to get a hotter spark. However, by doing this when the starter is cranking the white circuit is not energized. Is this normal or is my starter switch on the fritz? There is no additional terminal to hook the white/yellow wire to the new starter though I could bundle it with the white/red connecter at the starter to get juice while cranking. Or I am leaning towards running a wire from the brown circuit (hot all the time) under the dash to a kill switch then to the coil for cheap theft prevention.
Your thoughts por favor, Phil
