[Shotimes] still no crank after Fuel pump replaced

[Paul Nimz]

You only have power at the inertia switch for a couple of seconds after turn
on the key if the motor doesn't start.  By grounding the data link fuel pump
connector you can get the pump to run continuously with the key on.

Here's a link to a picture of the data link and the connector pin you ground.
