As i was having ignition problems i decided to rebuild my carburetor and change my ignition Coil as well as my Starter solenoid. After i rewired everything i went to turn the key only to hear a click every time i turned the key. I think that i did not rewire properly. Does any one have illustration of which wire goes where on the solenoid. I have provided pics below. Thanks for all of your help.

yamhoss86,
Go to the Adult section of this forum and I believe it is shop manual #8 you need for the 470. There will be a schematic in the electrical section.
