Jimmy problem......
Someone help me out here......my '75 Jimmy has a problem. I had a new carb put on it about a year ago. It flooded, caught fire, and I put it out immediately. Just the carb burned and a few plug wires, (that I know of). Any ways, fast forward to now.... I put another carb on it, it runs better than ever, but there is a problem....when I went to pick it up, I got in cranked it over a few times, turned the key and nothing...no starter, no lights nothing, whole truck dead. We wiggled a few wires, and bam cranked right up. Did it for the second time last night, again, no nothing. Tapped on a few wires and cranked up. It aint the key switch or neutral safety switch because that wouldn't cause the lights to not come on, or would it? Voltage regulator? Fuse block? (All the fuses in the block underdash were ok) Fusible link somewhere? The truck has never had this problem. I figured if it was a loose wire somewhere, then why wouldn't the truck just die when I hit a bump or something riding down the road?
It's a little embarrasing too, becuase I just gave the truck to a friend of mine who needs some transportation, so I need to fix it pronto.....any input would be great. Thanks. SLIMJIM
