Your going to have to be a little more specific. what exactly is it not doing? and, what have you tried when fixing it?

power problem

Im currently putting a new engine in my '86. I couldnt get power to anything either when i discovered that i had put my light switch, etc connections on the wrong side of the solenoid. Make sure that your positive lead and all other leads are to the correct post and that only your starter cable is connected to its post. It made all the difference to mine getting the power. Now if i could only get it to spark/crank... see my thread for any advice anyone has.
