wont stop cranking
Ok, y'all, I know this topic has been covered 100's of times, but the search feature on here really sucks.
I have a 67 Barracuda with a freshly dropped in 400/727. It has been converted to electronic ignition when the slant6 was in it. so when I get everything wired up, the starter keeps cranking after the engine fires and the key is let go of. Whar are your thoughts? thanks, 5th |

You need to use a test light to see if the starter is getting power from the starter relay "SOL" terminal after the key is released, if so check the "I" terminal for power after the key is released. If the "I" terminal is getting power with the key released the ignition switch is defective.
If the relay isn't powering the starter the starter is defective. |

i ran into this problem with my 75 pickup i put in a ron francis wiring kit and it has a diode through the wiring to the starter relay it runs from + of coil to the diode then to the starter relay and jumps from there to my fuse panel and when u just take the diode out and run a straight wire through it the starter keeps cranking so the diode kills the power through the relay to starter after you release the key to the run position.

Got it!
I got it figured out, fellas. I had the start side hooked up to the yellow wire that fires the start relay. it was feeding back through it when the key was released.
I found the correct "brown" wire. All is good now! I love A bodies with big blocks! 5th |
