Will later fuel pump relays work in earlier cars?



ETKA lists the relay as 321 906 059C. 83's get an F. ;^)
Looks like H is the large blade relay, but, hell this is ETKA!

  1982.  It has small blades and a fuse :( Right now, since she is still not driveable, I have rigged up a switch.  I could always make it a permanent switch...

  > There are a variety of relays. The early one with small contact blades and the fuse on the top, the later 8V relay with big contact blades and no fuse and the 16V relay with big blades that is just a relay since all the time-out smarts are in the 16V ECU and not in the relay. Also, some of the later 8V relays had rev limiters, some did not.
