Why is this happening, i have swaped my LG4 for a 350 carb'd and only my lights work but my turn signals barely work! i have taken alot of my ecm wiring out.

So where can i look and everything?

Dont know if it could be the same thing but i had alot of electrical issues because of a bad gauge cluster. Switched them out and it fixed most of the problems. Just a thought.
