Default HELP! Walbro Racetronix Will pay you for your time

Here is where I'm at

Racetronicx Hotwire Kit I ordered

Connections on my lid

Back of lid

Plug #1 this is off the new Walbro 450 pump

Plug #2

Plug #3

Plug #4

Mystery connector on the right, coming off the racetronix harness I have no idea what that would connect to any help?

How the old pump was hooked together

Old fuel pump connector

I think if I plug in plug #4 into plug #1 and solder the other end of plug #4 to plug #3 and put the other end of plug #3 in the back of the lid it should work? The reason I want to use plug #3 is because it is connected to I assume the fuel level mechanism that is on the bucket and I would like to keep that.

What connectors are on my truck right now

What year truck is this? I know they changed connectors around '03. My friends '03 fuel pump had different connectors than my '05. The new fuel pump he bought had the new style connectors and also came with new pigtails so we could cut off the old style, and crimp the new style on.

Call Racetronix. Tell them what you have, and he will be able to point you in the right direction. His email customer service is lacking, at best. However, I called him and he answered the phone. He was able to tell me what conversion harness I needed to finish mine up. I had a similar problem to this, but I'm not sure it was the exact same thing.

It's an 2001 Silverado but the guy who had it before me did god knows what. He said it had a Walbro 450 already in it but like the snake he was guess what didn't see it

I heard their customer service can be lacking but if you have his number can you PM me it or post it which ever?

to convert it back to make the harness work. When I get the part I will see if everything hooks up
