Hey guys new here, I just bought a 83 Scottsdale that was converted from the 6.2 diesel to the 350. I was having issues with it starting and replaced the battery, starter and alternator. when I replaced the starter (which of course was the last thing) the truck fired right up. Now I'm having an issue where the truck wont want to start unless I jump the starter solenoid, then it will fire right up with the key. I took the starter down and O'reilly did 3 tests and all passed. Any suggestions? Also something I noticed is there are 4 wires going to the starter which doesn't make since to me so I need to back track and figure out where they are all going to.
