Re: Carburetor starter switch 1049 super 8. 327

Electrically, the coil and starter are both fed from the ignition switch directly but are independent. If stock wiring, nothing in the starter switch circuit would cause the instant quitting. Starter gets power off the GA terminal as do all the accessories and instruments. Coil gets power from the separate COIL terminal on switch and is only powered when key is to the right on later switches having the additional left or accessory position.

If you rerouted something that is now blocking full travel of accelerator, that might cause the start issue. The switch engages at a certain point near the max limit of travel. Here is some information on the carb switch operation and adjustment.
