Won't Start !!
For the 1st time since I've had this truck, it wont start when I turn the key. I can start it up by jumping at the starter. Battery is strong. As soon as I turn the key, nothing happens. It acts like a neutral safety switch is bad, but I have a 3spd manual and NO safety switch. Any ideas?

use a test light & another able body to turn key. you should have full power to the "S" terminal of starter (purple wire). if it is there check at firewall bulkhead & then the switch.
keep us posted

Well....got it up and running again. Turns out it does have a neutral switch. For the time being, I just jumpered it out, and started right up........
