Default Inline Fuel Pump Help...

I 'm fixing to install a Walbro inline pump and was trying to get some wiring help..Would you wire it up with the intank pump to come on at the same time or wire it to a seperate switch ??

Also I've searched for wiring diagrams and can't find which wire runs the intank pump..I was thinking I could tie the inline with it..

Any help would be appreciated...

Thanks

Did you do the A.I.R. delete for your car? If so, this is what I did, I simply wired the in-line pump directly to the A.I.R. pump relay, and spliced the activation wire for the relay to the stock fuel pumps relay activation wire. This will be more than enough circuit to provide voltage for your in-line. It is designed for 30 amps and the pump may pull 20 at the most.
Do not "tie" your in-line on the same circuit as the stock pump. The wiring and fuse is not designed to handle that current draw.

I hooked my T-Rex inline fuel pump to the intank fuel pump wire with a relay so it will come on with the stock pump, so it will cut off when the intank fuel pump relay cuts off. I've had it for over two years now with know problems at all.

Right, but do not use the same power wire that runs to the stock pump. The activation wire for the relays is fine, but you do not want two pumps on a 20amp circuit.
