All: The intermittent fuel pump issue still lingers on our BB. Can anyone tell me where the wire (or wires) that feed pins 12 and 14 on the 14 pin connector are routed from the battery? It's obvious that it goes into, and returns from the hole in the firewall. But does it go all the way to the dash, or just under the passenger seat?
And the color, is it red/white or red/yellow? This seems to be the cause of the problem. And check out my OBD 914 version below. Only way I could figure how to determine what was failing. Rob |

Thanks for the print. I thought I had it solved as well. Headed out for a 10 mile ride but turned around when I realized I had left my phone behind. Car died three times on the way back but restarted each time.
My home made OBD confirms the fuel pump circuit is the issue. during more testing we discovered that pin 14 and 12 do not always have 12V. And when they do we can't wiggle, jiggle, or bump anything to recreate the disconnect. We were at Stoddard yesterday and I picked up three new relays. Only because all the relays I have are old, or URO crap. ( all pass the headlight test) Obviously not a relay issue as the disconnect is leading to the relays. But I figured, why not? Friday and yesterday the car stats and idled just fine. I'm hesitant to drive unless I have someone following with my truck for a pull home. Frustrating. I'll look at the wire routing again today, but it seems like it's not direct. |
