That's interesting.. The plug could be hanging out in there swinging around and shorting out.. Wouldn't have thought it would kill it without blowing the fuse though. Crazy

Well I started it at 5:30 this morning and didn't shut it off for almost 2 hours while driving around and making my morning rounds. I wonder if I fixed a loose somn or other by wiggling stuff. Everything seemed good, tight, and clean. I'll see how it goes throughout the day. So far it seems good. I'll check back in. Thanks for the help brothers!

Byron, you shouldn't hide these threads from me! I just saw this and I have had plenty of problems with the oil pressure switches but it has never killed the motor. It keeps running but vibrating, this last time I wondered if it was my drive shaft. Stupid me didn't look at the gauge until the vibration. Both the Mare and the OX I ended up hot wiring them to ignition on power. I also have put on a kill switch so if I leave the key on for some reason the pump will not be running.
