ignition switch question
I have the shop manual for my truck, 1948 Ford F-6. But I can't find the breakdown of which post, other than coil, goes to power and then ground?
It's a three position switch (middle allows key to come out).
I'm attempting to start my truck and need to make sure the switch has power I assume (I'm not hooking up the gauge cluster, etc.).
And which position from center is start?
Thanx!

ok, I traced through the shop manual and connected power to the switch and the engine. I wanted to avoid the gauge cluster but ended up going through it because it was needed 
This truck was converted to 12v and I'm finishing that out. I'm seeing 12v at the ignition coil, I assume that is ok. The truck turns over, I think it's not getting gas. I replaced the plugs and the coil wires (NOS).
