Ground or B+ to the solenoid is missing. When the key switch is "on" and the f/r switch is in Forward or Reverse put a volt meter on the + side of the solenoid to ground. Hit the gas pedal and you should get 12 volts to the terminal of the solenoid (It should snap in and pass battery voltage to the starter). The large terminals of the solenoid should go to the battery and the other to the starter through the F/R switch. The small terminals should tie to ground and 12 volts from the gas pedal switch.
