Thanks Zman. I'll also try to get the OBD codes to see if they point to anything. But not until after I get the new ig switch in.

 

I hope the ignition switch solves it. But I'd like to know if the fuel rail is indeed plastic. Can you confirm please? Thanks.

 

Well, the fuel rail was plastic, so I disconnected the clip that holds the fuel line to it. Turning on the old ignition switch caused fuel to flow out, so I reassembled everything.

Double checked all the fuses in the glovebox--all good. Check again the relays in the engine compartment. Lo and behold there were two tiny fuses I had missed on the relay block. ASD fuse was fried. Turns out the previous owner had put a 10 amp in a 20 amp slot. Duh. Plugged a new 20 amp in and truck fired up. That was the only thing wrong! Time to clean 'er up and get 'er on the road.

Thanks for your help.
