If you still had your Cab Lights and your radio still worked I would say it was fuse link "N" and what you lost was power to the contacts on the EEC Power relay. That would turn off your Ignition and fuel pumps but your Ignition Switch would still have power and the EEC Power relay would still be energized.

Here is a diagram of your under hood system so that you know what I am talking about.

You have been given bad information, the notch is the timing mark, the pointer has the numbers on it.

Set it to the sticker with it unplugged like you have it now. Then plug it back in.

If you really need the truck don't mess with it, but keep it in the back of your mind that you need to get this fixed the next opportunity.
