Two new solenoids

Confirmed power at switch on carb

Confirmed power coming off switch going to shaker power inlet

Confirmed power at solenoids in shaker

I cant get them to actuate with the shaker installed on the car, but I can get the flap to actuate on the bench when powered with a cordless drill battery.


Any ideas?
Shaker assy is not grounding due to gasket on carb probably, IF the outter ring is connected well to the cross brace with the solenoids.
