Interesting how some systems work. Only time I’ve seen the fuel pump operate is when I bypass the relay.

Planning to get a PCM and TCM tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

One other thing to try. Try starting in neutral. Then try to start in neutral and move the stick forward and back in that detent position. Long story on that one.

Replaced the PCM and all the gauges worked. Fuel pump primes. Didn’t start on first few tries. Then I realized CPS was unplugged. Now it fires up and idles quite nicely!!

Ignition sticks when turning it off, so that needs fixing.

There's a transfer bar from the tumbler to the electronic part, I think. I believe Doorman makes a replacement. Not sure that is the issue or not.

Good to know. I’ll have to open it up and see what’s worn out. To be expected with that many miles.
