Everyone elses responses are reminding me of a problem I had
with my motorcycle once that was somewhat similar. Turned out
to be the ground cable from the battery. Corrosion in one end
crimp allowed some juice to turn on the electrical but once I
hit the starter everything went dark. Push starting would
start the bike and it would run fine.
