I agree with the oil pressure switch.. That was a problem on my original towed.

There is not something clogged. and its not the impact sensor. It does not need a carb as it runs great while its running.

Also, I have no power in the dashboard. No hazards, no lights, nothing. But it will start and run.....for a minute and a half, two min.
I cannot find a mobile tech who does electric work anywhere.....

Buy a repair manual that covers 1990 Ford 1 ton van with 460/7.5 drive train. Drive train will be virtually identical. It will be OBD 1 the manual will show you how to scan the codes with a paper clip. I fear you may have complicated things by throwing parts at it.
