Help! I have a '71 Ford 2000 gas tractor and I have just replaced the starter, relay (solenoid), voltage regulator, and ignition switch. When I go to start it, it begins to start but when I let the ignition switch fall back to run, it dies. I have double checked the wiring with a wiring diagram from an IT service manual and everything seems to be wired correctly. I even put the original switch (Lucas) back on but same thing. The posts on the back of the old switch are labeled 1, 2, and 3. The wires are as follows: #1, brn, brn; #2, brn-red, white;#3, white/yellow. On the relay,the small posts are marked I and S. I is brn-red, and S is wht/yellow. Any ideas???
