Good afternoon,
There is no fuel cutoff switch for the fuel pump. Fords have this switch.
I attached a wiring diagram for you to view.
What is the issue?

It was in a rollover about a year ago. We are trying to make it usable as a farm truck.
It will run with gasoline poured in the carburetor but then shuts off.

Okay, can you hear the fuel pump run when you turn on the key?
Did you remove all the old fuel and replace it with new fuel?

Did not replace fuel. Added some new and shook it.
Cannot hear fuel pump when key is turned on. I’ll listen again under the car but I didn’t hear it while under the hood.

You need to drain all the old fuel out. Adding new does nothing for the contaminated fuel.
I would replace the pump.

Thanks.
I’ll start with good fuel and listen for the pump and go from there.
