Agreed, start with a relay.

Cheap and easy.

Wow, this is the coolest thing ever. Thank you all for your advice. The car didn't make any strange noise at all. It just kept on running. This swap meet is at Texas Motor Speedway and it is supposed to be huge. Has anyone been to one? Is it a smart way to buy parts? We went to NAPA and they said they couldn't get a wiring harness anyway. Again, thanks to everyone for your help and patience with ignorant me.

This Swap meet is the Pate Swap meet, been going on since dirt was new, moved to Texas Motor Speedway about 6 years ago. It is the 3rd largest in the whole country. There are many Mustang venders there. Your local auto parts store won't have parts for a classic Mustang, they don't even know where to start looking. My advice for Pate - sunscreen and comfortable shoes, and if possible a wagon to haul parts and a cooler

If you really need a wiring harness I suggest you try to find a local Mustang or Classic Car Club in order to see if anyone can help. When my harness shorted out I bought one for $75 from a local enthusiast who has a barn full of old Mustang parts. Beats paying $600 for after market stuff. It is quite simple to replace the old one. Regarding the Pate Swap Meet, it is awesome! Bring comfortable shoes. E.
