Thumbs up Thanks for the help...

Thanks to MattSD; James Dean & Sailor10150 for helping out on how to get my 12V facet fuel pump hooked up and wired.
I'm using this to assist pumping WVO blend into my 300D. This is the only "modification" since I live in warm weather in so. FlA. I will try this out and see if it helps with WVO/RUG blend.
Pretty easy job; got the pump at local AP store. It bolts to the frame near the fuel screen hose where there are already several pre drilled holes waiting to use. I used a relay switch on advice from "greaser"kid I know at the AP store. I mounted this to the coolant resevoir screw.
Wired to power in distributer box off the + terminal of the battery, with a 15amp buss fuse; ground to the frame; to the power on the pump and to the #12 fuse hole which is for the rear window defroster.
Had to use a connector from Lowes to get the tank side hose into the pump, and punched a hole in my thumb from the cheap hose clamps the AP store sells...Ouch!@!##.
It's pretty cool having an extra pump to assist the lift pump, and since the WVO blend will quiet my "rattle", the pump noise is a good backup so she still sounds like a diesel!!!
