so I am installing a new bosch fuel pump for my factory fuel injection system.. Where my factory fuel pump used to one in the stock location, one of the mounting tabs is gone from a little bit of rust, so I am moving it to the firewall. And mounting it with sheet metal screws.. Any body have a manual fuel pump switch wired up so if that relay crap decides not to work I can just flip it on with a switch.. where do you have it mounted and how do you have it wired up ?
Thanks |

There are two relays that control the fuel pump. One of them powers up the whole FI system, so if "the relay crap" decides not to work your chances are about 50/50 that none of the FI will work even if you convince the pump to run.
Fix the problem correctly, don't hack in a band-aid. --DD |
