    Starter upgrade issues

    Update: Basically I am back to the beginning. She starts sometimes. More consistently when she is warm, clicks several times if she is cool. I pop it into gear and bump the tranny a few times then pull the clutch and she fires. This is the same issue that lead me to swap out the starter...

    I have been looking over the wiring diagram. #30 post goes to my fuse box and then to the ignition switch. I put the Digital_guard_dawg ignition in it and so either they gave me an incorrect wire pigtail or their brain box is not working properly. I am reaching out to them on Monday.
