Make sure the ground cable from the battery to the engine block is clean and tight. If the ground at the engine block is clean and tight, when starting your ground circruit may find a better ground through the smaller assessory grounds which will not be good enough to crank and power up ignition at the same time. And will also over load the smaller firewall grounds.
