I got it. The fuseable wire that attaches to the battery was bad. Had 12.6 volts at the relay until trying to start, then dropped to Zero. Thanks again for the help.

Update. I thought I had it but today it quit again. The only differance is that both days that the problem started it was wet or raining. When it dried out last week it worked fine. I hate electrical problems! Thanks for the info.

Thats the part that confused me too(the 20 A fuse). I had the solinold off and just pluged into the connector. When I removed the fuse and just used a jumper wire the solinold worked, but if I put the fuse back in it would not. A testing of the fuse shows it to be good, replaced it and the engine started. Where is the relay on the firewall?

I had a very simular think happen a few weeks ago. I was not driving that fast though. The carrer bearing was bad. Would not do it all the time but would squeak.

1996 Dodge Ram 2500 with 297,000 miles. The fuel shutoff is not getting power on startup. If I turn the key on and manually pick the plunger up it locks in place. How does the shut off get powered? I changed the 20 amp fuse in the power distubution box but it only helps for several starts. Thank You
