Okay thanks. Unfortunately I live on an island and I've been to every auto store down here and can not find the 4 pin orange bosch one. No one even has an off brand to match it up.. I will take out the fog light one and give that a try thanks for that

I can send you one for the price of postage. Let me know.

Okay thanks man. Theres a small junk yard w/ 2 E30's here i will see if he has any i can grab.. HAve been busy lately haven't had time to put the pump in and test it but will take a wack at it today.

Folks, we have lift off! ;D

Changed the pump, jumped the relay and boom! Fuel lines blew gas was every where! Lol changed those and tried again and cranked right up!!

Only let it run for a little while though due to old oil but it ran! No AFM either  ;D :D

Awesome!

Change that oil, button up the relay, and call it a day.
