Ga,day
Ga,day from down under,just found this great site on F Trucks and decided to join in. Ive built up a XLT 1977 F100 longbed running a 400 clevo/c6,pro comp ignition, Ive had a few problems, mostly wiring. The latest is the remote starter solinoid wasn,t engaging the starter, Just clicking! so it was replaced,now the truck will start but when the key returns from the start position the truck stops?Some how I have mixed the wiring up, as simple as it seems. Tryed different combonations but its still doing it. Is there somthing Iam missing?

The remote starter relay has two small terminals correct? One of them is labeled "s". The other is labeled "i".
Make sure the red/blue wire that comes from the neutral start switch is on "s". Also make sure the battery + wire on the large terminal, is on the large terminal on the "s" side of the relay(solenoid). The large starter wire should be on the large lug on the "i" side of the relay(solenoid). The small wire you have left over goes to the "i" terminal.
You should also have a smaller wire(may be black, may be yellow) with a large ring connector on it. Make sure this goes on the large lug that the battery + goes to.

Here's what it should sort-of look like.
The red/blue should go to #5. This picture doesn't show the extra terminal(if you have it).
LP gas? Shouldn't make a difference.

should have added that this rig is set up with gas,so I dont know if that will make any difference
