Help me understand the fuel system!

Relay / switch. CONSIDER. Just what might happen if you wreck it? You can use something like a Ferd Ranger crash switch in series with the relay. You can ALSO hide a switch somewhere in the relay coil circuit for anti--theft. ALWAYS wire the thing to switched ignition so it "kills" with the key. Notice what the pump draws for power, bigger wire is always better than smaller LOL

X2! I also used a Ford Ranger crash switch and use it as an anti-theft device as well.
