Hi everyone. I have an 88 F150 302 that I am having some major problems with. It started with just whenever I'd turn the key on it would continue to crank until the battery ran down, then I would wait a bit and it would fire right up. Now whenever the battery is hooked up it tries to start. We've replaced the alt, the battery, the starter solenoid, the starter, the ignition switch, and the ignition lock cylinder. Now I'm being told it's in the wiring. Any ideas on where to start??
Thanks in advance,

Kelly

 

Check to see if you got 12V at the (ithink) blue w/red wire at start soleniod.

wasn't much help to me [:@]

 

I finally called on a friend who knows a lot more then I do and he got 'er fixed! Yee-haw!! The postive wire from the starter solenoid to the battery was bad.

BTW - that webpage at Autozone.com didn't do me much good either.

Thanks for your input
