Found and Repaired Constant Cranking Starter
First off thank you all for the ideas and help, w/pics even.
I had only pulled out two of the in dash relays, when I started tracing the wires from ignition switch out through the fire wall into engine compartment and found the source of the...
Nope there is no remoter starter switch installed (all original wiring). Another thing, when my ignition switch is in run position (relay wire to starter solenoid connected) and the engine is cold and off(key on, engine off) the starter cranks intermittently. but I noticed yesterday wednesday...
I get it. That is what I think is going on. I wrote incorrectly a short. Doing the wiggle test is producing 12 volts and I also think that two wires are crossing and creating the voltage. However I also need to replace the heater core and this may help me with both. I did replace the ignition...
Thanks again for all the replies. I have done the sequence of tests listed above, and when I shake the wiring harness with the red/blue pilot wire attached (ign. switch in run position)it goes hot off and on. So here we go with the dash board removal and either replace the wiring harness or...

Right on I just posted this less than 10 minutes ago and an answer thanks. on the routine maint. I have done everything except the fuel filter which I am going to go install in a couple hours when it gets light out. Appreciate the prompt reply and I hope this does the trick. I do not know how to...
My 84 Lincoln Mark VII starts to cough,sputter and surge when under load going uphills at 45-50+ miles per hour. The motor is the 302 5.0 ltr CFI your help would be greatly appreciated. When the engine starts cutting out it seems like it is losing fuel and spark at the same time but then it cut...
