Tyler, a question about this:

The VATS system incorporates a starter cutoff as well as a fuel cutoff -- so your fix would allow bypassing of the starter cutoff, but if I understand the system correctly, the engine should still not start, due to a lack of fuel delivery? Or is the '88 system only providing a starter cutoff?

Thanks,
Andrew
