Default Gremlin pissing me off......

just got everything installed and have been breaking in the engine and clutch... Runs awesome but have realized my Meziere WP only starts randomly and when it does not start the ignition system loses spark and does not allow the engine to start. It is the darnest thing and can not determine what is causing this. Here I should mention I did mistakenly re-wire the relay with ground and trigger on the wrong poles, but have replaced the relay and wired correctly and is doing the same thing. My trigger is wired to the fuel pump ignition wire, the power is wired to the battery , the ground is wired to the chassis, and the blue wiire and ground wire off the pump are wired connected correctly....... Any help with this would be very much appreciated! Thanks

When I had mine, it was powered from one of the empty HDLP DR slots in fuseblock #1 (Camaro) and grounded to the front of the driver's side wheelhouse (G101).
No relay just the inline fuse.

It worked flawlessly for years, until the pulley wore out.

Have not got this diagnosed yet... I believe it is related to the ignition system. It will be fine and then it will not energize randomly, which is why the pump does not start when it happens. Any ideas or direction here would be much appreciated. Thank you.
