Driving and died

Hi all, Sorry I haven't posted in a while got a new job and time has litterally escaped me.

Problem today. Left to go to work and she just cut off. (92 w250 all stock). Cranks but won't catch. Any idea's where to start ? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Ron

Check the wire on the kill switch on the pump it should have two wires going to it.
Maybe the switch is no good you can pull it and take the plunger out and it will run but you will need to manually turn the pump of to stop the engine O and put the switch back in before you start it.

I agree with what was said. I had the same problem. On mine the factory blade connectors got sloppy so I removed them and installed "O" connectors. Now it never dies unless I tell it too (turn the key off)

Thank You

I wanted to thank Buddy Stewert and 1st Gen Fan, She's fixed. It was a bad/shorted out ignition switch. Starts and stops just fine now. I'm glad I don't have to mess with the FSS. Nice to have good knowledgable friends here. Ron
