Looking for a good Switched Power Source for Fuel Pump



Mine's using a black wire with a white stripe, it may be stock or one that
Drew and the Cheapassed one wired in when the KS ignition was grafted in
down in Ohio. Regardless, it's probably a stock wire colour for that
purpose. At some point I'll track it right back to the connector, too tired
to dig out a Bentley at the moment :) I can look at the 16V tomorrow if I
remember and see what colour hers is.
Cathy, not a whole heck of a lot of help eh?
