Okay, so recently, my wait to start light wasn't coming on when I turned the key to the on position. Truck would crank all day but wouldn't fire. I assumed it was the glow plug relay, and I had a spare, so instead of testing anything, I just swapped them out and that solved the problem. Wait to start light comes on and starts right up.
Now, while driving, the wait to start light has come on intermittently and sometimes the truck stalls. It's almost as if the key was turned off and then back on again quickly, but the wait to start light came on before the stall.
It's a 92 truck with a 94 non-turbo engine out of a van, swapped over all of the truck parts needed for the swap, and put on an old Bank's turbo. I should also mention, as I'm wondering if this is the culprit, but the previous owner had told me someone had tried to steal the tuck and they messed up the key cylinder. It's like the outer part (the two tabs on either side of the key which rotate with the key) is turning separate from the inner parts, if that makes any sense.
So, anyone have any idea what could be the problem. Like I said, I'm wondering if something dealing with the ignition system at the column has sh*t the bed.
Please help!
