Gas Tank Switch makes motor die.

(1/5) > >>

JohnnyPopper:
Hey here's a weird one: Started my 3+3 yesterday, switched to right side tank and the motor dies. Repeat a few time, same thing.

Any ideas?

bd:
Which system: cable operated, solenoid valve, or motorized valve?

JohnnyPopper:
Great question! I'll take a look but it's on a '89 C30, electric switch is in the same location (relatively) as my '78 K10.

I think we can rule out manual, still will have to check if it's solenoid or motorized.

Thx!

VileZambonie:
Loosen gas caps and see if it changes anything.

Irish_Alley:
the switch itself can be bad and have poor contact on the inside. you can take it apart clean it up and see if it helps but theres some springs inside of it so be careful when you take it apart. if im not mistaken chris did a write up on here on how to clean them
