Can you take a pic of the connectors attached to the motor? Also have you tried adjusting your motor height? If its too high(in) that might be your issue.

Ill upload pictures tomorrow morning. I put new connectors on the motor wires because the other ones came loose. But I put the anti reversal latch in correctly and all the wiring seems fine. I got my gun working. But my 9.6v die fast and its hardly feeding. Sent from my SCH-I535 using proboards

I'd probably be worried those connectors aren't covered, but that may just be me.

If you can't figure it out, I live fairly close to you. I could help you diagnose the thing if you wanna bring it my way.

Is 16 AWG wire normally really thick?

16awg is about 1.291mm, or 0.0508 inches thick, not including the insulation.

I got some at home depot and it's not really that flexible.

I really go overkill when I rewire a gun, but I only use the wet noodle wire, or as close to it that I can get and will fit.

$39 for a 25 foot roll? Holy crap! Seems like a lot of moola just for flexibility...

I got new wires, heat shrink, a Weller soldering gun (which lets off a horrendous smell) and a multimeter.

That, and go big or go home. Plus the length of wire you need is so minimal it really isn't going to break the bank.

High strand count only has low resistance to high frequency signals. It has to do with something called the "skin effect", where high frequency makes all the electrons travel on the outside of the conductors.
