1976 super beetle, electric fuel pump

Asked by GuruMV7LW May 17, 2020 at 12:05 AM about the 1976 Volkswagen Beetle

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

the fuel pump in my 1976 super beetle gets power when I turn the key to start
and it starts right up but as soon as I release the key the power is cut off to the
fuel pump, any ideas why? could it be a faulty key switch?
