Re: Which type of switch
thats true, very true....i think im going to consider using a relay now. those are easy to set up. i am going to try and find another source for the fuel pump cause i dont want to go all the way to the rear.
now oen quesiton, the 12v wire from a source to power the relay..shouldnt that be fused? now u have a fused fuel pump incase something goes wrong right? im not sure how many amps is that fuel pump, i think u measure the resistance 30amp auto relay is good... ill work with this tomorrow hopefully..

alright well, I would fuse it since it is going to your fuel pump... but since the relay is after the standard fuse to the fuel pump there shoudl'nt be a problem with just running the switch direct without a fuse... because the relay does'nt supply the power to the pump.. it's just a switch in the line.. they are totally independant circuits. the only interaction between the two is that one turns the other on/off. but if you want to be safe run it rhough your fusebox with a 12volt fuse just to be safe.. I would'nt bother getting a 10 amp fuse cuz if there's a surge and that wire grounds out the wire is just gonna *fzzzkk* and fry. you can run it direct from the fusebox and not even bother with a lead to the battery.. there should be a free slot on your internal or engine bay fuse boxes for some accessory you don't have....

Re: Which type of switch
i got another idea instead of splicing the fuel pump. there is a ecu fuse in the fuse box inside the car. if u tap that line and re-run it to a switch, it powers up the fuel pump and the main relay
ill work on this more tonight...it works i tried it and the voltage drop is only .8 volts. and it wont reset the ecu...i tested it. o and the line going back to the fuse box, i put the fuse inline so its perfect =)

Re: Which type of switch
hey whatever works. Just saying a fuse in the fusebox is cleaner looking, and easier to check...

Re: Which type of switch
cool let me ask u this. how do u use the extra slots in the engine bay or inside the car. id figure u would have to split it open so that u can run the lines right?
i would really like to run it like that cause of course it is really clean. thanks
