My car is a carb car. The red and black wire has no voltage. I think the pump relay gets a signal from the ECU, which is not there. Is there a way to energize the relay sans the ECU. I don't want o run a hot wire to the Pump for safety reasons.

Fuel pump relay is on engine compartment relay board.

I know were the relay is but I was told it gets it signal from the ECU which is not there. I thought I read somewhere that there is a way to energize the relay with out the ECU.
Thanks Brian |

Are you using SirAndy's method for powering your pump? If not, the info for the procedure is in the 'Classic' thread sub-forum on page 2. Simple and straight forward.

I got it working! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) What I need now is a good source for new relays.I swapped out one and the Sir Andy method worked. Where can one buy reliable relays?

You should be able to source a few known to be good ones in the classifieds.
