Tony Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 my car starts right up with no problems. then about 2-4 secs...just dies. i hear my fuel pump spinning like normal. i drove it today pretty hard, lol. then parked it. went to take it back to storage. now it does this. seems like some kinda electrical thing idk.
Tony Posted March 30, 2013 Author Report Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) so i figured out that if i do not turn the key completely back..then forward again, it wont start at all. like the fuel pump has to kick back on to give it just enough fuel to start, but then die again. so if i start it, let it die, and just restart w/o turning the key aall the way back...it just turns over and never starts.video: Edited March 30, 2013 by tony
Det_Riot Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 maybe your fuel pump is taking a shit? or you're losing pressure somewhere. and it has to rebuild pressure? i'm just throwing ideas out

wmfateam Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 Should be 35-40 psi stock, it should also hold steady after turning off.
Steve-Oh Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 Tony, talk to Ferocious. I think he just had a similar problem and fixed it rather easy.Sent from Space
Tony Posted March 30, 2013 Author Report Posted March 30, 2013 ferocious...help ya boy mayn, lol.hey could be an ignition switch? just seems sudden, and exact when it starts and stalls...something electrical. no symptoms before
smallblocksn95 Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 I'd say security issue caused by ignition switch
Tony Posted March 30, 2013 Author Report Posted March 30, 2013 thats what i'm thinking. i checked the fuel pressure...reads a tad under 40. i cant find the fn ignition switch. took my column apert and i dont see it. anyone know where that fn thing is, lol?
Tony Posted March 31, 2013 Author Report Posted March 31, 2013 found the switch...had a burnt spot on it...swapped it out, bam....fixed, lolol. shheeeww! had me a lil stressed! thanks fellas for the tips
