Hello fellow olds lovers...........

I have a question about the starter on my 72 Cutlass supreme.There are 3 wires coming from my starter.Where do they go? I know one goes straight to the positive on the battery.Where do the other 2 go? I have one going to the horn relay on the firewall.Is that a place to where it can go?

My car is drawing alot of power during start up and i'm trying to figure out why?

Thanks guys!!!!!!!

 

If I am reading my shop manual correctly, One goes to the battery, one goes to the horn relay junction block, and one goes to the coil.

That's a great looking car by the way. Since I'm old school, I would have to change those wheels for something more traditional, but otherwise I think you got a real beauty there.

 

Thank you for the compliment.Some people love them and some not so much.I'm apart of the younger generation and this is what we like.I have a 84 442 cutlass with the rallies on it if it makes some of you guys feel better.(smile)

 

one small one goes to the ignition (if you jump this one to the large hot lead it should spin the starter) and the othe goes to the coil ( this one gives a full 12 volts to points during cranking only. normally the are resisted)
