Re: Ignition wiring issues

Sorry about that.
I have a 350 a new battery, alternator, and voltage regulator. The ignition wiring from a 7 prong ignition, was pulled apart and hotwired to move the truck from a parking lot. I put the wires back to where I thought they went and the truck was running fine. One day the battery was dead and I replaced it. I already had a brand new alternator so I slapped that on. The truck started running for a few days and then kept losing the charge. I would jump it with my 04 Silverado SS and it would lose charge over night. Then driving it home it started smoking which I later discovered that a wired from the after market radio caught fires be melted the coating off. I can get it started but it starts to die after about 3 min of idling. I need to know which wires connect to which connector on the back of the ignition switch. Maybe I'm a bad researcher but I can't find anything and the schematics look like Swahili to me. I'm in the Marine Corps and don't have a lot of time nor money to get it fixed. Thanks VetteVet.
