On a three port fuel pump what wire hooks to the + and- ?There is a black/red and a brown. I want to make sure these are hooked up correct and I suck at reading wiring diagrams.

Brown is always ground (aka negative) in these cars.

It is all plumbed and ready to go. Hit the key and the fuel pump is not running. Changed the relay with a known good one and still nothing. Hooked the pump power directly to the battery and it pumps fuel no problem. Not sure were to go from here. headbang.gif

There is a fuse for the fuel pump relay on the relay board in the engine compartment. Is the fuse ok?

Pump won't run if the air flap of the fuel injection doesn't move.
