Sounds like a wire to attached at the starter or fusable link blown on mine wires coming from starter to the igniton system. The wiring for the ignition power is up on the top of firewall running across under the hood will have fusable links and fuses in line with it, but also check to make sure you have a ground going to motor and from motor to body or battery to body, might just be a missing ground. Hope this helps some.
