It has been a while since I did fuel pump wiring. Is their a spare pin location where you can split the power to two pins, then merge them back together inside the tank?

Yes there is one spare next to the smaller fuel level pins.
I was thinking about using this but not sure it's a good idea to just upgrade one. |
If you use the second pin, you could split the wire into two, then merge them back together inside the tank. That would eliminate the restriction of a single pin.

The dirty solution would be to use the spare pin as an extra positive and then wire the fuel level negative together with the pump.

Riceball, what did you end up doing with this issue?

Good to hear you were able to resolve the issue, for under $100.
did you solder the crimped pins? this may aid in preventing a nuclear meltdown in the future. I just ordered this kit for my car yesterday. I'll see what I can come up with as a preventative measure. |
