Re: Update- starter issue TR 6 Engine rebuild/freshen
Hi,
I have the engine all hooked up, turned it over for what seemed like forever, with the plugs out, to get oil pressure. So far all good. Has 50# pressure on the starter. Put plugs in, pull choke and it wants to start, so that's good. Have a little leak from th fuel pump. May need to put a gasket in it and redo connections.
Problem I have is the starter continues to run in the on ignition position. I didn't disconnect the wiring from the ignition switch, only wires that came off were the ones on the starter, alternator, oil pressure switch, those in the engine compartment. I also disconnected the wires on the transmission. Could it be if I didn't get those on the switch right that would cause the starter to keep turning?
I'm so close. Any ideas what would cause this and more important, how to cure it?
