Intermittent DNS

[ALLTHECAMS]

I have spark. 45-50 psi fuel pressure. It actually started when I was working on it today. I test drove and started it 3 more times once I got home. I put the dash back together and it wouldn't start again.

I did not go back and read the rest but is vats still active ? Have you tried both keys if you have them? When my clutch switch went I went ahead and added the resistor to by pass the pellet on the key

I only have one key. I ran a jumper from the purple wire on the clutch safety to one of the yellow wires on the VATS lockout. According to instructions on the main page of this site that should bypass both clutch safety and VATS. I have a friend that used to work for Ripple and he thinks its a fuel issue. I just remembered I had a similar issue on an IROC I had and it was the fuel pump relay.

Where is VATS lockout located ? Is it possible to completely eliminate the entire VATS and TDS ?
I have been fighting DNS for 2 years now, on 2 1990 cars. New batteries, both new fuel pumps, bypassing VATS at bottom of steering column, TPS has .45 volts.
On my red car, key on, under hood use jumper from battery to the larger purple wire to engage starter, ....car cranks and car fires and tries to run for 3 seconds then dies. Subsequent tries car will not fire, unless turn key off and wait 10 minutes, then it will fire once only, then key off and wait again.
My vacuum pump not working. Car has spark on all 8.
Please, any help ideas ?

I bought a $30 cheap code reader from auto value, but only code I can get is code 12.

I haven't had any issues since I bypassed VATS at the bottom of the column. Maybe someone else knows?
