Chewievette Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I have been trying to get this car running since I bought it, and it Finally fired on ether a couple of days ago but I had to hotwire the ignition to get it to do that. So here is what I've been working on, I am going to start my wiring of the car with the below system just to get it up and running, then I can start adding on the other systems, lights, gauges, etc... Take a look at the diagram and let me know if there is anything wrong with it. My only question at the moment is what the rating of the fusible links are, no one can tell me, I was hoping you guys would know more.

Dave Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 The battery is hooked up backwards, The picture shows the battery + going to ground and the battery - going to tha cars switch. The rest of the picture shows the wiring as correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewievette Posted April 1, 2007 Author Share Posted April 1, 2007 Thats an awesome link, thanks. However it doesnt really help. It doesnt show a 1972 and I dont have any of the old wiring so I cannot check it to find out. I must have switched the battery markings around, they are correct on the sketch I did. They are fixed now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
