Walbro fuel pump electrical connection advice

Recommended Posts

Planning to fit my fuel pump, one evening this week. Just looked at the instructions and everything looks pretty staight forward.

 

The only question is, the new electrical harness that comes with the pump also comes with butt splices/connecters. Now once you cut the existing wires and add the new harness with the butt connectors i guess this get submurged in fuel. will this be safe?

 

I guess it must be as it shows this in the instructions.

 

Any ideas/info

It'll be fine, mine hasn't blown up yet. :bang: :D

 

It's best to stagger the connectors on the two wires so that if the worst happened you won't get a short circuit.

 

If they're the standard type crimp connectors with the plastic insulators they'll be fine, most of us on here do it this way.
