    This is perplexing me! Im finishing up with an engine swap, an L67 into a GT body. Well I go to turn the key foward to pressurize my fuel system to check for leaks and the pump does nothing. Also the starter doesnt do anything as well. What I find wierd is that when the key is all the way foward, like it is when you start the car I cannot put the car in gear. But if I go one click foward then I can put it in any gear. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I did not touch anything on the transmission either, I left it in the car. Thanks.

    u said, "What I find wierd is that when the key is all the way foward, like it is when you start the car I cannot put the car in gear. But if I go one click foward then I can put it in any gear."

    my question is this, how do u go one click forward if its already "all the way forward" ?

    What he's saying, is when he turns it all the way to "start" he can't put it in gear (which I don't think you can anyway). When he turns it to the first notch (ACC on my car, not sure about GPs) he can put it in any gear.
