![]() I need to temporarily wire my fuel pump to come on when the ignition is on so that I can drive it about 3 miles. I am not getting power to the pump somewhere after hiding my wires in the fenderwell. I just need to get it home so that I can troubleshoot the real problem. What is the safest way to do this?
I was thinking I could run a wire from the fuse box back to the plug where the inertia switch is in the trunk. Will this work?

![]() Make sure you hooked up the EEC ground. It is on the dirver side and had a plug that has a wire that is grounded to the body. I had the same probelm when I re-wired my 86 with 89 harnesses. The plug was open(the other end was missing) and I couldn't remember what it was for. After troubleshooting I cut the plug off and ground the end to the body.

![]() Yeah, I think that is the problem. I actually damaged that wire in the process. Do you remember the coloring or origin of the wire so that I can trace it back and re-do that wire to a ground? Any help would be great.

![]() It's over in the area by the starter relay. It's black with a green stripe if I'm not mistaken. But the plug is a round plud that has a loop like connection where the 2 halve's meet. You will see what I am talking about when you see it.
