The wiring diagram you referenced will work OK but the 10 gauge wire and 30 amp fuse are a little over kill for a pump that draws a little under 2 amps. I have a 3 amp fuse in mine and have never blown it. I would rather blow a fuse if the motor ever locked up than have the pump sit there getting hot and burning up. Especially Since it has lots of gasoline available to help feed the fire.
