Starter help.

[Muncher]

So I just got my engine mounted in today all all hoses and wires hooked up. As soon as I put the positive wire on the starter starts spinning but the engine does not. I also have a push to start kit installed so maybe the starting wire got put in the wrong spot? Please let me know what you think I'm very close to having it done.

I would start by checking the wiring terminals at the starter/solenoid, usually there is a large cable at the positive starter motor stud and a smaller gauge wire at the "S" stud on the starter solenoid. Some models have an additional wire at the "I" stud on the starter solenoid that goes to the ignition coil positive terminal/stud.

Are you saying that maybe the spade wires are in the wrong spots? Not the circle ones on the big stud.

It is possible, you can identify them with a test light but may need an assistant at the ignition switch to crank when required...
