So we were having problems with the mounting bracket that attaches under the distributor. Mainly NONE OF THE BOLTS were installed! So I loosened it all up and installed all the bolts. Now the truck will not start. I get power, lights, dash indicators etc. but not even a "Click" when I turn the key to the start position. Any ideas?
I used an Ohmmeter to check the wires from the alternator to the battery, Starter Cables etc and everything is giving me a decent connection. There is one relay called a "head" in the box next to the battery but I didn't think that would have anything to do with my starter system. Jumping does not help either so it is something in the system. I am going to short out the wires that go to the Clutch Starting button under the dash.
Any other ideas out there?

Never mind. We found it, it was an 80 amp fuse in the fuse box next to the battery. Don't know why we missed it the first time through.:screwy::banghead::loser:
