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 |

Car runs and drives but the car dies out and the fuel pump shuts off I go to turn the key no sound from the fuel pump.. Pop the engine lid pull out the white fuse check it snap it back in pump goes back on.... get to my destination on the way back it does it again creep to the side of 101 and pull the fuse pop it back in and pump goes back on..

Any Ideas Clean the contacts for the fuse. BTW, the fuse should be red, not white. White is 8 amps, not enough for the pump circuit. The Cap'n |
