ok good deal. Now u need to go buy a test light and turn the key to on position do not crank it yet and find a hot wire in that junction block or a fuse under dash which ever. Most likly it will be a fuse that has something to do with the ingnition or crank. It needs to be hot when key is in on position and when engine is running. this is bc u want it to prime up before u crank it. Thin just tie the fuel pump hot wire into that. Make sure it turns off when key is completely off. It would prob be best to use a relay so that u get good battery power. Pretty simple just take your time, and dont get into a hurry. Need anything text me.

o yeah if u havnt messed with a relay there pretty simple to wire up. It has four wires to wire in. One ground, hot from a switched source, battery constant power, and main power to your fuel pump hot wire. If u install it on a relay it will have great voltage. use somethin like 8 gauge wire for battery and power wire to fuel pump. This is the Best way to do it. After all this u need to upgrade to a 255 walbro in the tank. Thin u will be ready lol.

Halla playa.
