ok, i'll try my best to explain. i have a v8 305 gmc. while boating a pluf off cap busted resulting in the bildge filling with water. so i ordered it an installed.(simple) now on a different note i was having ignition problems found out i had a short at the fuse box. the problem was that the ignition wasnt working right the dash lights would come on sometimes, when they did the ignition would work when they didnt the ignition wouldnt. so now the problem is some what fixed. the ignition is working great but the dash and gadge's dont work..all that said the problem i need help with( hoping that some of the above might be useful to determine a soloution). the engine is turning over, its fireing then dies. seems fuel related but i can see that gas is getting to carb. i try starting it with the throttle all about midway. (no choke on key) and its like it fires up but dies immeadiatly. so my only thought are something got wet.but like i said it fire's just wont stay running. i am sorry if im not explaining that well but anyone who has so time to trouble shoot this with me i can answer any questins. i have gone through it like it was a v8 car an havent gotten anywhere with. so thanks in advanced not dure if im allowed to post my email or not but if we could email each other back an forth that would be great
