Just a quick fuel pump connection query.

I have bought 2 new replacement OE quality fuel pumps for my 2001 XKR, but the pumps I have been supplied have shall we say a universal connector (2 bare wires at the end of the lead)

I have searched the forum but I cant find anything regarding how people connect this type of fuel pump.
The way I see it there are 3 options:

1) Is there a short loom I can buy that has the new fuel pump connector at one end and the female jaguar connector at the other? (as shown in the attached image) So I can plug my existing connector into this loom and then into the new fuel pump.

2) Can I buy the female Jaguar connector (show in white on the attached image) that I can then crimp onto the new loom? And if so, what is the part number I'll need.

3) Cut off the genuine fuel pump connector and solder the new cable directly to the wires? Although I would prefer not to cut the existing loom.


Thanks in advance.

 

Most people would cut the existing wire and crimp.

You could cut the wire at the pump end and attach that to the new pigtail if you want to keep the white connector in place. Or find a discard and do the same.

If you went to the aftermarket pump to keep costs down there is really no reason to consider keeping the harness stock as it is unlikely that you will go back to the OEM pump in a future replacement for the same reason of cost.
