Ok, what are you saying? Are you saying your starter is operating when you connect the battery cables? If so, then your problem is in the wiring and/or steering column/ignition switch. If you're saying that the only problem you have is your truck not firing, then check the wiring to the coil.
If I'm way off base...

I think you have some wires touching on the starter from where you installed them. Try that.

Good Luck,

Or the starter could have shorted inside, Had that happen on a PINTO years ago. Had to run down the street with it and jump in, it was trying to start and was in gear. S C A R E Y
