Will later fuel pump relays work in earlier cars?



The relays I have are from an 85 wolfie and an 86 8v.  One fuse panel
has all the relays in place and the other does not.  If I can identify
the relay I could at least take a picture of the pins and send them off
to Lexan.  Actually, once I know which ones are the fuel pump on either
of these cars I will just send them to her.  Rick.

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.
