Electrial Problem
I seem to have a real problem. I have a braided fuel line from the electric fuel pump to the carburetor. When I turn the ignition key on, the car will not start. I just clicks. When I turn off the key, the fuel pump continues to run. If I touch the braided fuel line to the block, small sparks fly and the fuel pump stops, but if I stop touching the block, it will start running again. The battery has a full charge. Is the car not starting somehow related to the fuel pump excess run time? Do I have a short somewhere? Have a blown a fuse, or worse shorted out the fuel pump? This is all really frustrating (as are all electrical problems)!
