awesome, thanks for the help guys. i did manage to get it to crank, just wiggled wires and made sure the harnesses were tight. after that i wanted to check for spark but when i tried it didn't crank so guessing for sure electrical. i'm just going to redo all the wiring as it was sitting for a long time and i just would feel better knowing it's all redone by myself. it'd be nice to see that post you did of the rewire. i was gonna look online for what i needed. it didn't come with a cover for the electrical box so it's a mess of wires everywhere. haven't checked with my volt meter yet but will probably monday since i've been working long days. so until then i'll just read up on more stuff. i like the idea of shutting the gas off at the petcock so i'll go manual. bought the 15w-40 diesel oil but wont put it in till i know it will stay running. getting there slowly but will get there.
