Ok looked for the fuse under hood couldn't find one. Just wondering by some chance could it be my alternator. Cuz I know it will run without battery connected.

Running with the battery just means the alternator is putting out, which is good. but you also run the risk of fryin the ecm....as for the fuse location...check either tucked up in the driver fender or on the passenger side firewall...


good luck

92 has the only fuse box under the driver side dash. make sure the sending unit is still plugged in, lol and check for broken wires
