Same thing happened to me.. including my wife in the car. I was able to figure it out, and avoid the tow.. this time.
I have carbs, so for me the problem was the live auxiliary air valve power wire (not used with carbs) shorted to the block and blew the fuel pump fuse. Hope it's something easy to fix. Good luck. |
