I`ve had the fuel relay switch go bad on my `90.It`s a 1 " square electrical plug that goes in the wiring harness on the drivers side wheel well,but I don`t know if yours is the same.

Sounds like the inertia switch to me. But I too have no idea where it is on your vehicle. Could be as simple as resetting it.
