Re: Simple Wiring Question I Hope..

Some times the simplest thinks can be the most difficult to diagnose. I've had enough cars in my life to have a fair understanding of how IGN wiring works and "a little" knowledge is often a bad thing. Thanks to Ironangel and Vettevet, I was able to confirm my knowledge of the system (and lack of for that matter) and "I think" found the problem.
The truck is wired the way Ironeagle suggested. (IGN UNFUSED direct to coil). Don't remember seeing this before so when I didn't see a wire from the R side of the coil I was baffled.
After tracing every wire I could, and much frustration, I narrowed it down to two intermittent issues. 1) the fuse block connection was loose in side the connector (sometimes it worked sometimes not) 2) The original IGN switch has an internal intermittent problem, if you wiggle the key just so it will lose connection in almost any position.
So, a new switch is on the way and I fixed the fuse block connection..
THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS!!
