Getting my car back together after replacing the fuel pump with a 2-port Bosch 69133 unit from Napa.
Car starts as normal, but when I turn her off she just keeps running. I can remove the key from ignition and she keeps running. And of course, this isn't some sort of overrun condition....actual running. Pull the coil wire and she dies as expected. Other notes, fuel pump is wired to switch power up front (previous owner did this). :dunno: |

Lots of good suggestions here:
1. Trans ground strap - was going to do this anyway 2. Ignition switch - This could be related to the inability of the car to turn off after turning on. 3. Loud new fuel pump (this is either not enough gas in the tank or crimped lines after the reinstall of the tank). Well, I need to get the fuel sorted out first in #3. I guess I am hoping that #2 or #1 above are why it won't shut off when the key is turned off. Where can I get a good ignition switch these days? I think have read before on these boards that quality can be an issue with these switches these days... |
