Shutoff Problem

Hi All,
It has been a long time since I posted. I am stumped.
My '93 has a shutting down problem. I need to open the hood and remove the wire from the shutoof solenoid to shut this truck off. I had a problem with my ignition switch where it had a lot of slop in it, so I replaced it. I thought that was also the shutoff problem, but alas, it was not. Any ideas?
I have thought about a switch in the wire that I have to remove to the solenoid, but I think I would rather fix the " real Problem ".
Thanks in advance,
Mike

There must be a constant hot shorted to that circuit some where.

Anything else acting funny like that? What about the other stuff on that circuit?

I don't have a circuit diagram yet, so I don't know.
Thanks for the replies

Has anything aftermarket been added to the circuit, like a remote starter? That's where I'd start.
