Sounds like you have an electrical issue of one sort or another.

there are two wires running from the positive terminal: one directly to the starter and the other to the engine bay fuse box. mine was chewed up with wires exposed and shorting out when my engine flooded and starter solenoid went out. i replaced it with 2' of 8-10 gauge wire from an audio store.



check these wires, the one running to and from the engine bay fuse box. this could be your problem.



that's all i got.

It is possibly the one of the main fuses. In the 88, check the fuse box which is located near the battery along the driver's side strut tower. The fuses can blow quite easily when you remove the battery cables.
