Thanks for your responses. I think it's the relay. When I hold my hand on the relay while my wife turns on the key and it clicks, I can feel it pulse.
It's mighty close quarters to get at it. If I can get a fairly detailed picture
of it, It might be easier to remove it. Or, I might look at one in a parts store. Would the part number for this be the same as one for the Ford truck?

Yes they are the same. I got ready to leave a RV park one day and it would just click. I took out my test light and I probed both sides of the relay when I turn the key. It would click but the side going to the starter solenoid did not light the test light.
So I had one with me from a 1995 F-150 truck that I striped and I put it on and the engine started right up.
I took it apart when I got home and the contacts looked like this:
The one still mounted on the F150:

Well, I finally installed the new relay, but apparently incorrectly.
When I start it, it starts,but the moment I release the pressure on the key it kills!
There are 4 wires which I've attached to the relay. I'm assuming that they are not attached to the correct studs.
Can you give me some ideas on this?
