Start button works with no key
Hey guys, still don't have the truck running yet (carb gasket needs replacing), but I have the wiring done and the crank turns by hand so i got a little crazy and hooked up the battery, to see if starter (and wiring) worked.
I expected to see something change on gauges when i turned the key either left or right... but nothing.
The start button works and i was able to crank with starter... with belts on. The oil pressure started rising as I cranked.
But, after I got done and took key out it still cranked when i pressed the start button... lol
So, is it a faulty ignition switch (probably)? I had a different wiring than the schematic showed, and I'm attaching the image to show what I did but I'm pretty sure it's correct.
I disconnected the battery after I was done, I have a feeling it would drain the battery otherwise.

So, nothing is wrong? Huh, I guess these trucks are easy to steal then especially since my driver's door doesn't have a lock!? I may have to mod it a bit if that's the case.

Plus, of the ones that do know how to drive standard shift vehicles, how many young ones know how to shift a three-on-a-tree?

Luckily mine is 3 on the floor. I learned to drive on this truck, and it's been in my grandfather's barn for 25 years. I don't remember the non-synchro double clutch tricks, but I'll figure it out again or do some serious grinding trying!

Yes, but it can go wrong too: Man killed because carjacker is mad over manual transmission | abc13.com
