Is this car new to you? If not, did this problem just start? If it is new to you, and has never started properly perhaps there is an old alarm system installed that is killing the power in the start circuit?

Car hasn't ran in years.
I've narrowed it down to no power at yellow wires at ignition switch, must be a fusible link?

Thanks guys for all the help. Tested all fusible links, no fault found.
Finally ran a new fused wire to switch, and started after years of setting! Whopee.
Now, if I can get it to idle...

So you ran a wire and it has power which is great . With the fuse . But the fusible link tests good ? I can’t see it being good unless there was a break in that wire somewhere else . Either way I’m glad we were able to point you to what was missing to make it fire .
Is the car a 86 ?
