I strongly suggest that before you do anything more with your motor you get yourself a manual.You can then follow the wiring diagram in the manual and you should have no more problems.You need to have a good look at the engine harness to make sure that it has not shorted out somewhere when you had the melt down.If its good,when you hook everything back up hopefully nothing has been blown and it will start-up normally for you and you are good to go.
