My 87 4kq is acting up lately.  This morning the car would not start for me.
I noticed that when I turned the key to the second position, The clock/trip
computer went blank.  When I turned the key back, it reappeared but the time
had reset to "0:00".  I did a little more investigating and it turns out that
the ISV is not vibrating as usual with the key in the second position and I
also don't hear the fuel pump buzzing.  The battery doesn't appear to be the
problem, as I have plenty of juice to operate the windows, sunroof etc.  But
something is clearly wrong here and I do not know where to begin.  Any Ideas
would be greatly appreciated.
