That's a possibility, but I doubt if that's it. Still, I'll check the 
pressure when I get into it.

Hmmm, I would have thought that it would run, but maybe it gets so 
rich it just can't run. I can check that someday. That's not a big 
difference.

No, it's a 3 position switch, OFF/NORM/(ON), where the (ON) is 
momentary, and NORMAL and ON are different outputs. You're not likely 
to have one. In reality, it's a double pole switch, 2 switches side 
by side with different actions, like this:  

OFF/ON/(ON)
OFF/OFF/(ON)

Yeah, took some effort to find....
