I have a 1991 motor home with a 454 engine, I have
It looks like you answered my clarification request by posting a new question. Don't do that... keep it here. I inadvertently answered that question, thinking that someone had started a new thread with no information but "My vehicle has a caburetor."
This really sounds like a fuel delivery problem. It sounds like, while the pump is turning slowly during cranking fuel slowly seeps into the float chamber. Then the motor catches, and the fuel flow cannot meet the demand; the float chamber empties, and the truck dies.
I would take the fuel line off the carb, disable the ignition, point the line into a bucket (*like a coffee can), and crank the engine. You should get pretty good flow into the can. If the pump is electric a good steady flow, if operated by an eccentric on the camshaft timing gear (that is, the pump is bolted onto the side of the timing chain cover) fuel in healthy spurts.
My first suspicion is a really clogged fuel filter, and my second suspicion is a bad fuel pump. a hole in the fuel line, cracked hose, etc, can allow sucking air, which can seriously impair fuel flow.
How do you change an ignition switch?
The switch sits on the top side of the steering column. It's mounted with 2 screws and there is a couple of electrical plugs to unplug. You'll probably need to lower the steering column to get at it. Make sure to disconnect the transmission indicator cable. Also, make sure the ignition rod is installed properly into the new one and the switch is adjusted.
Ihave a 1991 chev 5.0l with a stuck torkconvertor
If your torque convertor is stuck, you will not be able to start the
vehicle. You will no doubt have to drop the trans.I've never heard of
a stuck convertor, just a wiped out one, that doesn't engage the
trans.Good luck.
The back passenger blinker wont work and the bulbs
Different filament.
You have two filaments in those bulbs. A dim one for lights, and a second one that's brighter for directional and brake. You need to see if you have a good ground and both positive's at the socket.( with the parking and directional on)

Check fliud level first, being low can cause, also might want to remove transmission pan and inspect for a clogged filter, if ok rhen seals in transmission bad would have to rebuild or replace transmission.
1993 chev 1500 pickup wont turn over as if fuel
Can you hear the fuel pump?
Turn the key to on the pump should come on for 10 sec
If not unplug the fuel pump relay and jumper orange to grey the pump should run.Check the oil pressure switch as well. If not replace the pump and wire. If it does run try a different relay. If that still doesn't work you'll have to get a schematic and see if there is power to the ECM. It will be either the ECM or Ignition switch or wiring between them.
