Ok...the joke's over...

The truck is running again!!!!!!!!!! Now I am MAD!!!!
It has taken me until today to be able to work on the truck due to work and inclement weather.
After I found this joke of an electrical problem and fixed it, I began to look for the next problem. And to accomplish this I simply looked to the one place where I had not looked yet that I was so sure could not possibly be the issue...
THE GAS TANK!!!!!!
Yes!!! And there I found an even bigger joke!!! EMPTY!!!!!!!
This perfect storm was all a big celestial joke on me!!!!
The junction block wire started popping loose coincidentally at the same time that unbeknownst to me the gas tank was running low, AND when I was moving dash wires out of my way to work on the interior!!!!
GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This all created the illusion that I had somehow disabled the entire electrical system by moving those damn wires!!!!!
Two gallons of gas sure did not go far in this truck that I have,so far, only driven in my driveway!!!!
This goes to show how truck mechanical/electrical symptoms can be coincidental and very misleadling!!!!
Thanks millions to all of the great people who tried to assist
