Why is it that when guys ask members for help they can not supply more info to help the cause?
1. what gauge power wire and what length? 00 gauge and about 10 feet
2. What size ground wire, gauge, and length? 00 and about 10 feet
3. Are you using a stock starter relay or after market? (I like the Ford ones) Stock
4.what starter and when was maintenance done to it. New starter off of a late model Durango. Tried my starter off the big block I had that worked fine on that car, but same issues with this truck so I want to rule out the starter.
5. did you ever clean the surface where the starter bolts on. Yes, I cleaned every contact surface.
6. Since you are grounding to the starter did you ever try going directly to the engine block. I have a ground from the block to the chassis as well as a steel plate motor mount on the driver's side that acts as a ground also.
7. Did you use a chassis ground too? Yes
