Electric fuel pump wiring

Rmoore said

Starter motor still turns the motor over. Ignition nor fuel pump needs to be on if all you want to do in spin the engine over. I can spin the engine over till I burn the starter up or battery dies. My car has a lot of compression. I would spin the engine over then flip the ignition and fuel on and she fires right up.

electric pump: What if the bowls are dry? You could turn motor over a few hundred times with separate ignition ON before the bowls fill. Dunno. Maybe its a safety thing with a electric fuel pump, lose Magneto control (switch fuses) and all you got left to kill the motor is lack of fuel? When you ask NHRA, tell us the answer. EFI kills the pump when it loses cam or crank sensor, it thinks the car is not running, and it'll also strand you if either sensor goes.
