Default Wiring connector on top of fuel tank

Hi gents,


I'm having an intermittent problem with getting power to the fuel pump. The problem appears to be the connect on the harness that connects to the tank fitting. The connector has 4 wires...fuel pump and level sensor. I've looked at SNG Barrett and can't seem to find a connector. Can you guys point me to a part number?


Thanks and take care,

There is a fuse after the relay and not before . The 4 wire connector is for 2 fuel pumps in a supercharged engine . May have a floating relay as you can swap them if the some marked part #

The connector is part of the harness running towards the cabin. Your best source is going to be a wrecking yard or log onto www.jagbits.comand send a parts request with the photo to them. Dan is really good on unusual parts and will get back to you within a day.

I did check the grounds and I can make the pump shut down by 'wiggling' the connector. Looking into the face of the connector, one of the terminals looks damaged...


Thanks!

If you look at the connector do you see any part numbers as mine is X300 and may be different . Pump side look OK ? I think there was a upgraded pigtail that had a noise suppressor in it that may be used and not have to get the whole harness . I could be wrong as this is the case on the X100 .

Seller says will not fit :

I have this in my parts cabinet. Orientation is off obviously, maybe parts would work.

If the contacts look overheated it may very well be a sign of the pump going and drawing too many amps .... common.
