So are you using a volt meter to test for voltage?
Where do you not have voltage at?
Have you pulled the bulkhead connector to take a look?

Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first.
Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.

Well you said you don't have voltage in the interior (Red wire) at the bulk head. I would check for voltage at the connector (opposite of end of the fusable link not at the starter relay) sounds like it fried.
Remove the connector (engine side) and check the voltage at this (of the fusable link) end.

It is the wire. It is a special wire that acts like a fuse if there is too much draw on it. If you buy a generic fusable link from the parts store make sure to also buy one of these pakard 56 terminals. so you can terminate it correctly.

Yeah missed that part, too. Check the other end of the fuseable link, not just the end that is on the relay. Check the engine side.

If this is bad don't just splice in the replacement part. Take the wire out of the harness and replace this assy. I dunno if the replacement part is available anymore at the local parts store. You may have to make your new ends. This picture is from a ebay ad that is a direct replacement part.

Better yet do the MADD electrical update. Dunno where the link to that one is but I'm sure someone here has it.
