Hi folks, hope everyone had a good weekend. I need to roll up my sleeves and dig into a new '75 DJet car to get it sorted out but have a quick question on the fuel pump relay behavior.

When I turn the key I can hear the fuel pump energize briefly and then the pump runs once started (and then dies). If the pump energizes and then runs briefly that suggests to me the fuel pump relay is good.

I'll swap in the the headlight relay just to make sure (since the headlights work fine so that relay must be good), but I wanted to check that my logic here is sound.

Thanks!
