no start

serial #64598
Engine will not run unless you hold the ignition switch in the start position. I disconnected the excitor wire from the starter and used a remote start switch, the engine will run as long as the ignition switch is in the start position. I have 12 volts to the coil and distributor with key on. I have 12 volts to the lp converter as long as the switch is in start position. Could this possibly be a shutdown system failing?

I would check the distributor tac wire if it is broken it will only run in the start circuit. Check from distributor to computer.
