Toggle igniton switch problems.

My key starter switch got worn out in my 84 gsl-se. So I put in 3 toggle switches. One went from power to ign1 and ign2. Second went from power to ACC. Third went to starter.

There were 2 other small wires. One black and one black/red. If someone knows what they are for that would be great.

Anyways now the car won't start. It sputters a little but just doesn't want to run. I thought it could be flooded so I tried all the unflooding tricks in the book. (Except new plugs cuz the local store has to order them in).

Any ideas anyone?

Btw I did order a new starter switch for the lock cylinder. Should be in in a week or 2. But still need car to get around. That's why I tried the toggle ignition switch.
