inertia switch
I have '89 E150 W/5.0. This van was running fine it simply died.There was no indications of anything going bad.It simply quit.B/4 I go into the expense of replacing the hi PSI fuel pump I would like to make sure the inertia switch hasen't been tripped.Its really hard to check if I can't find it. Thanx.dead without a reason

Thanx,I found the switch.passenger side beside th heat/AC unit.It wasn't tripped I by passed the fuel pump relay.The hi psi pump works.It is on frame rail under drivers throne.By bipassing the fuel relay,pump runs continus.I didn't have a pressureguage,butthere's fuel.When I hit th ignition it fired,but didn't stay running.Gave it a shot of ether and she cranked right up.The motor ran smooth for about 30/40 seconds and died.Hit ign again,no ether,motor hit 2 or3 cyl dies.The van has dual tanks.Both tanks are full of fuel.I just can't picture both of the in tank pumps going out.Could my problem be in fuel tank selector?
