Hey guys.

73 1.7 D-Jet. 3 port Bosch fuel pump (now located under the fuel tank) runs constantly and is a bit loud. I read that it is supposed to run for 1-1.5 seconds and stop with key on engine off. Checked wiring and found it is wired directly to Fuse #8 on the fuse panel. Where should it be wired?

Side note. Car sat for 5 years before i rescued it and the fuel pump had power but didn't run until i whacked it a few times.

Thanks in advance, You guys are awesome and your expertise is much appreciated.
