Starter Still ingaging
Hello All,
I recently was sucesful in installing a HEI ingnition sytem in my 68 mustang.
However, after starting the engine for the second time, the started stayed ingaged while the engine was running. An awful noise I may add. And then I turn the key off, and it still ingauges. And then in less then ten seconds, the battery is completly dead. Any idea ofwhat it could be?
I did pull 12V power from a black wire on the keyed ignition, could that have something to do with it?
Thanks,
Mike

i would think that you tying into a keyed lead on the ignition would not really affect it, but is it possible that you may have made a faulty connection and crossed it or arced it with another terminal.
Or, you solenoid could be bad!
I would start with the connection on the ign switch though. since it started once you made that change.

If it doesn't stop, the relay is most likely bad. Give it a wop with a hammer and see if the starter stops. Either way a new relay is in order.
