Subject: [Mgs] 78 B fires right up and dies
List,
I am having another (probably simple) problem...
Turn the key, the motor fires right up. Return the key from start to
regular, engine dies. If I hold the key in the start position, the motor
will run (and so does the starter motor)... trust me I know the difference
between really running and just kinda running along with the starter
engaged...
I don't have a schematic handy and I don't have a second person to turn the
key while I check voltages... Are there two different contacts on the
starter switch, one on the regular on position and another on the start
position... could I just have dirty contacts or does this seem like
something else?
