HELP, my truck will not start...now I am stumped

[EOliver]

OK guys, sorry it took so long to get back to you all. I found my problem, and fixed it on Wednesday. (Neil, thanks for the wiring diagrams!) It was a shorted wire that goes to the fuel pump. Just an FYI for all you guys, check your wiring harness where it comes around the brake booster to the fuel pump and make sure that the harness is NOT rubbing on brake booster! So my truck is back on the road again, wow what a pain in the butt.



THANKS EVERYONE FOR ALL THE HELP!

Didn't think that 1st generations had an electric fuel pump.

Probably a fuel heater.

Well, I am speaking of the "fuel pump" per say. I never did trace it all the way to where it terminated. I am guessing it could have been to the ksb solenoid, or fuel shut off solenoid, or quite possibly the fuel heater. The pump itself is mechanical, but it has all that other crap attached to it.
