Recently replaced fuel pumps and fuel tank on 1988 B2. It has 40 PSI fuel pressure and will fire when I turn the key. After I let go of the key the engine dies immediately. Any thoughts on where the problem is?

I've seen the ignition switch connector gives results like that.

The connector doesn't always stay connected well. I've seen zip ties used to hold it together.

Or a bad ignition switch itself possibly?
