71 Fuel Pump Wiring


V8-240Z

Recommended Posts

I spent the last 30min searching the forums for the solution

to the little problem I am having and have not really found a

answer.

I put a electric fuel pump in my 71 and used the wiring that

is in the car for a electric fuel pump. I have the fuel pump

connected to the existing wires for a electric fuel pump that

are at the tank sending unit. The - wire that is in the harness

is grounded to the chassis at some point. The + wire goes

to a T plug that was taped to the wire harness behind the

radio with blue tape. At this time there is no battery in the

car and I am running the fuel pump off of a 12V power source

connected to the T connector behind the radio and grounded

to the chassis.

The car has not been running in 6 years so I installed a electric

fuel pump with a filter before it and a filter up front and I am

pumping Kerosene out and back in to the tank to clean it up.

I will leave the fuel pump and filters and use them once I get

the car running.

My questions are

1)Where does the other wire go that is in the T connector?

2)Did the dealer use a relay and where was it?

3)Where was the fuse they used (In Line?)

I want to use as much of the factory wiring as I can in this

conversion.
