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: |

I had this happen when putting gages back in to the dash. car would not turn off...
Swapped the ignition switch--not it, swapped the fuel pump relay--not it. checked all grounds clean to the chassis. Got out the 74 electrical schematic. I thought to pull each fuse one at a time until car died and then trace all fused loads. intent was to remove all fuse * wires with car running and see which one allowed the car to die. Drop the fuse panel and start the car. Went to fuse 8 (?) (supplies the fuel pump red-black wired that is switched thru relay panel) and pulled all output side wires one at a time. Then traced out what that supplied. another would be the Pelican electrical link to regulator circuit--- this link does a 73 http://www.pelicanparts.com/914/parts/Elec...lectric_73E.jpg regulator plate link http://bowlsby.net/914/Classic/TechNotebook.htm http://bowlsby.net/914/Classic/zTN_Elect_R...e_Circuitry.jpg ground points http://bowlsby.net/914/Classic/zTN_Elect_GroundPoints.jpg Mine was the generator light bulb and socket. Another time a fuse kept blowing and it was the license plate lights being installed incorrect. so be skeptical of what you recently worked on and thought all was well. hope some of this helps.
