I have a 89 jeep wagoneer. It was running I parked it now it will not start! It runs only if I keep the key in the start position! So I put a new ignition switch in it, and checked my relays, and my neutral safety switch and I put in new spark plug wirers and a new starter! any ideas why it runs only if the starter is running the hole time?

 

It only runs if your cranking the starter? Once its started can you gas it up and hold the pedal down to keep feeding it gas?

 

you changed just the tumbler? the swithch is actualy in the colum and i think you can adjust that so it changes the position of start,and open circuit.

 

Yeah when I'm holding the key down it runs I give it gas and it's fine then one I let go of the key it stops running. So I changen the ignition switch thinking it went out...

 

the electrial switch did you adjust it right

 

Yeah I put the switch in right. It was doing this befor I changed it...

 

you put the key in the accesorie position then pushed the switch down the coloum then tightened the two bolt/nuts

 

I'll try that in the morn, and let ya know how it works out.

 

its morning here lol
