Tries to start....won't continue 200 1982

posted by  someone claiming to be Michael on  Tue Nov 21 09:08 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Maybe someone out there has the answer to my dilema or at least somewhere to start the search. I have an '82 242 that, when cranked, does great until the starter circuit disengages. If held in start position...ugh, it keeps going but dies when the key is released. The fuel pumps run when the relay is jumped. The in tank pump is new and the other seems to be putting out fine. I don't know where the power is dropping out when the key is released. Hopefully, with your collective knowledge, I can put this irritation behind me. Thanks in advance!
