Situation: one time about a year ago when I turned the truck on the ignition wire (from starter switch on floor to the key switch on dash) started smoking and melted. I tracked that down to the cloth harness having rotted and two wires (one from coil to switch and this other wire)touching when not supposed to. In the meantime I thought maybe the coil was having problems and switched it out with a spare I had. Wiring seemed to work fine for about 6 months, then parked it for about 3 months. Now when I try to start it it does the same thing. Replaced ignition wire again. Checked all dash wires for rotten insulation, replaced some, taped others think I have all good now. Replaced wire from Regulator to Amp gage too. No longer burning wires, but the Amp gage pegs out (35 is top of gage)and the coil seems to give intermitten spark. Any ideas??????
