Well since I plugged in the ignition wire switch into the solenoid, the car starts, but it still takes four ignition cranks to get the starter to go.

So I got in the GTV, and headed for Radio Shack. I purchased me some 22 Gauge wire, Butt connectors, female slides, and wire stripper/crimper.

Popped the spica box off, and studied the wiring the best I could. Well turns out some previous owner jimmy riged a switch to the solenoid and cold start (switch was under dash). I have no idea what it's purpose was. But the ignition wire was split into a bad fusible link. So I had my ignition wire plugged to my solenoid, and from the same connector another wire came out and plugged into 3 wires, two from the switch, and one to the cold start. So I cut the igniton wire, which lead to permanently throwing away the switch setup out. Cut some new wire crimped it, and plugged it into the solenoid. Cut another foot of wire, and threw two female connectors on it, and plugged it into the second male connector on the solenoid, and the other end to the cold start.

When I first purchased this GTV, it never started well, it's been a year. I delt with it some kind of way. Now that I've taken 180 hours of electrical class, I now have the balls to battle electrical gremlins! Wiring is so fun! I can't wait to re-wire the whole car.
