You may have an open fuse link coming off the battery side of the starter relay.
Try to pull them apart and if they stretch they are bad.

Well it's been a week of intermittent troubleshooting on this thing but I finally got her figured out. Would you believe it was the HP fuel pump all the time. I didn't want to even consider it throughout this entire event due to the fact that I had replaced it 15 months ago. Who would have thought that it could have gone bad in such a short period. Well she's up and running again but I cannot believe that it was the HP pump again????? Thank you all for the advice and special thanks to Subford for the schematics and in depth troubleshooting tips........Now it's off to my buddy's shop for a complete body restoration and sandblasting of the frame. I'll post before, during and after pics.

Welcome to FTE.

You should really start your own thread with a descriptive title talking about YOUR problem, and not hijacking other guys' threads in which they're looking for help with their own problems.
