Ran a 10g wire from the hotside on the starter solenoid to the two yellow wires going into the ignition switch and finally figured out how to correctly put my distributor in. I have it timed by hand to where it runs decent. I borrowed a timing light off a buddy but it didn't project a beam or anything so i figure its broke. Guess I'll buy a cheap one here soon. I never messed with with timing or distributors before so this was a learning experience for me.

You're welcome.

Now, to fix the car you should find out why you didn't have power at those yellow wires to begin with. If you've got a dangling, broken 10 gauge wire somewhere in the dash you could have problems...

Could I just take off the main yellow wire from the starter solenoid since I have a new wire doing its job?
