Bit of a Problem

[GP I JoJo]

I have been rambling on with a few posts, but I wanted to see if I could get some insight. So I got my Cruise Control fixed thanks to this site, I still have problems with my rear window not working still intermittent but hasnt worked at all lately for a few weeks. But besides that a new and hopefully not a recurring problem, I was driving all day the other day and had to stop and do some shopping, came back out and went to start the truck and it wouldnt start, it turned over fine but just wouldnt give. I sat in the parking lot waiting for my buddy to come on base and see if he could help me out and a guy comes over and says i may have a fuel issue. He put a bit of fuel in the intake and it starts fine and stalls out. He mentioned about a fuel injector reset button so we messed around with the owners manual and found this button, which is under the dash by the passengers feet. we had to hold the button down to get the truck to start. Do any of you guys think that this could be a bad fuel injector or short? Or maybe it could be a fluke. Im not a mehanic but has this happened to anyone else?

the button/ cutoff switch only disconnects power to the fuel pump. It has nothing to do with the injectors. The cutoff switch could be faulty.

Yeah, if you had to hold the button down then the switch is malfunctioning. Replace the "Inertia switch", which is the correct term for it.
