Before you post asking questions, you should also post things including what you have done and what you have not done and what you know and what you don’t know. It is very helpful information to know that you have not properly aligned the transmission shifter and the transfer case shifter. That...
If you have a keyed ignition, it has failed. Aftermarket keyed ignitions fail and can fuse in the “start” position.
Alternatively might be a PCB issue. You can rebuild the protective control box with the posted plans...
Just received a bad 200Amp regulator from Beltfed34 Austin.
Gonna start dissecting it. Trip to Commiefornia to finish work on the M1165 will interrupt.
Later this week I go to Commiefornia to work on my M1165. I will be making an Aluminum support to hold generic oil and tranny fluid and power steering fluid coolers.
I’ll post pics when the time comes
No way I’m willing to spend $800-1000 for something I can redesign and build better for...

Post 4048 “what have you done lately” thread.
4051 has his partial parts list.
He posted elsewhere regarding his build BUT it is eluding me. I just woke up and I’m still rubbing the sleep from my eyes...
A lot of reasons here. It is possible your lift pump has failed. It is possible to check valves are giving you trouble. If the problem goes away when you have a full tank of fuel, it is most likely the lift pump.
