I just bought a '91 f-350 cab and chassis that sat for 7 years and I need a couple pointers on how to get it going. The biggest problem I am having is its not getting any electrical power to anything unless I use a jumper wire from the positive battery terminal to the solenoid on the pass side fender. Once I get power to it everything works and I can start the truck. The electrical system will continue to work as with the jumper wire unhooked until the ignition is turned off and then everything electrical goes dead. Can I run a permanent wire from the battery to the solenoid with out hurting anything? The other problem is the GP system. Sometimes the WTS light will come on for a few seconds and sometimes it just stays on for a second, either way the truck is hard to start and smokes for a while once after started.
