PLEASE listen to this advice to save throwing a lot of unneeded parts at it.
If the dash doesn't work, amongst the other symptoms, it's the IGNITION SWITCH.
They were a POOR design and often fail to make contact causing problems just as you describe.
WHY do some of you think the gauges would fail to work from a failed ignition module?
Furthermore, even WITH a bad ignition module the fuel pump would do it's 3-second run every time the ignition is switched on.
If the ignition switch IS working you will hear several relays behind the dashboard close when the ignition is switched to "ON", then the fuelpump relay will drop out after 3 seconds or so.
It IS possible to troubleshoot the ignition switch to verify it's bad before replacing it if you have a wiring diagram and can see what areas of the power distribution box should be powered up with the ignition "ON" and during cranking.
