Old thread fyi

I got it fixed over a month ago. ended up being a combo of a bad Fuel Ballast resistor and a wire pulling out of the connector for the fuel pump. I suspected the pump and thus installed a new NAPA unit along with fixing the wiring bugs, I jumpered the FBR for now and will grab a couple spares at my local pull-a-part
