Default Perkins 4.236 in 75 Range Rover

Hi, UK newbie after some advice.
Just bought 1975 Range Rover with a Perkins 4.236 conversion. Came minus ignition, cooling and power steering. All sorted except engine preheat which sits in intake manifold with a fuel pipe. There are no electrics to it. I have tested it and it heats up OK. Does anyone have a wiring diagram or know what relays and wiring I need to create a push button or ignition preheat feed to the manifold?
Cheers, JimmyMac D

well you should be able to just use a push button to a relay then from the relay to the power source, ground, and to the heater.

Thanks for the info, when you say power source, is that straight from battery or is there enough juice through LT wiring on ignition? I take it that the relay is earthed?
