Re: [DML] Fuel System problems

["Mike Polzin" <MPolzin@xxxxxxx>]

It turned out that the inertia switch got tripped for one reason or
another... I might have accidently kicked it with my foot getting into the
car, otherwise I am not sure why it was tripped. As soon as I reset the
switch it started right up.. I took it out for a 30 minute ride with no
problems besides the fact that the car has original NCT tires that really
need to go.. more like rocks than rubber.

Thanks for the help.. I should have checked that one right away.
