Bill, it is a stomp start. Which leads me to the next question. After I did the jumper, the truck now starts every time. Good, but unfortunate. I pulled the ignition switch to check connections. All appear tight. And it is a new replacement switch, FWIW. So, starting (no pun intended) at the starter, I have 12.5 or so volts at the battery connection. Upon stomping the starter I have about 11.1 volts on the connection that leads to the ignition switch. Is this correct? Should I have 12.5? Wondering if the stomp switch could be intermittent and at times dropping the start circuit to an even lower voltage. Did the question make any sense? Thanks for your assistance!
