Make sure that a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline fires is close at hand. 2. Disconnect the positive lead from the battery. 3. Relieve fuel pressure by disconnecting fuel line from existing fuel pump. 4. Make sure that this fuel pump's electrical requirements match your vehicle. Must be +12vdc with negative ground. Strongly Recommended Install an Oil Pressure Safety Switch. Connect the red power lead of the fuel pump to the "P" contact of the Oil Pressure Safety Switch. This prevents the pump from oper- ating if the engine stops running but the ignition switch is "on." Installation (For Negative Ground System Only) 1. Find a suitable mounting location. This is usually on the inside of the frame rail. Must be located away from poten- tial road hazard damage, exhaust heat, and must be posi- tioned vertically within 12-inches of the bottom surface of the gas tank. It must also be adjacent to the existing fuel line. 2. Cut existing fuel line with tubing cutter. Watch for any spilled fuel. 3. Position the pump at approximately a 45° angle on the mounting surface with the outlet pointing up. Mark two mounting holes using the pump as a template. Drill holes out to 7/32" with drill. Scrape any paint away from frame in area where pump will be attached to ensure a good electri- cal ground. (See illustration for mounting at 45° angle.) 4. Position the pump over the holes and thread the sup- plied self tapping screws into the holes. Be sure to place one of the screws through the eyelet from the black wire on the pump. Use 7/16" wrench to tighten snugly. If using rub- ber isolation mounts, (Facet/Purolator #479807) use the supplied nuts and lockwashers to attach pump to mounts. 5. Install the fuel filter as shown in the diagram. It goes on the inlet side of the fuel pump. Reconnect all the fuel lines using short rubber hoses and clamps as shown in the dia- gram to the existing fuel line. 6. Connect the red lead from the pump to the Oil Pressure Safety Switch. If this pressure switch is not available, attach the red lead to the ignition switch power supply ter- minal. 7. Reconnect the battery cable. 8. Turn ignition switch on and start engine. Check for sound of pump running or put hand on pump to feel it running if you can't hear it. Check for any fuel leaks. If leaks occur, turn off ignition switch and fix leaks. Clean up any spilled fuel. Turn ignition switch on again, start engine and recheck that pump operates and no fuel is leaking.

Preparation Steps

1. Make sure that a fire extinguisher suitable for gasolinefires is close at hand.2. Disconnect the positive lead from the battery.3. Relieve fuel pressure by disconnecting fuel line fromexisting fuel pump.4. Make sure that this fuel pump's electrical requirementsmatch your vehicle. Must be +12vdc with negative ground.

Strongly Recommended

Install an Oil Pressure Safety Switch. Connect the redpower lead of the fuel pump to the "P" contact of the OilPressure Safety Switch. This prevents the pump from oper-ating if the engine stops running but the ignition switch is"on."

Installation (For Negative Ground System Only)1. Find a suitable mounting location. This is usually on theinside of the frame rail. Must be located away from poten-tial road hazard damage, exhaust heat, and must be posi-tioned vertically within 12-inches of the bottom surface ofthe gas tank. It must also be adjacent to the existing fuelline.2. Cut existing fuel line with tubing cutter. Watch for anyspilled fuel.3. Position the pump at approximately a 45° angle on themounting surface with the outlet pointing up. Mark twomounting holes using the pump as a template. Drill holesout to 7/32" with drill. Scrape any paint away from frame inarea where pump will be attached to ensure a good electri-cal ground. (See illustration for mounting at 45° angle.)4. Position the pump over the holes and thread the sup-plied self tapping screws into the holes. Be sure to placeone of the screws through the eyelet from the black wire onthe pump. Use 7/16" wrench to tighten snugly. If using rub-ber isolation mounts, (Facet/Purolator #479807) use thesupplied nuts and lockwashers to attach pump to mounts.

5. Install the fuel filter as shown in the diagram. It goes onthe inlet side of the fuel pump. Reconnect all the fuel linesusing short rubber hoses and clamps as shown in the dia-gram to the existing fuel line.6. Connect the red lead from the pump to the Oil PressureSafety Switch. If this pressure switch is not available,attach the red lead to the ignition switch power supply ter-minal.7. Reconnect the battery cable.8. Turn ignition switch on and start engine. Check for soundof pump running or put hand on pump to feel it running ifyou can't hear it. Check for any fuel leaks. If leaks occur,turn off ignition switch and fix leaks. Clean up any spilledfuel. Turn ignition switch on again, start engine and recheckthat pump operates and no fuel is leaking.
