All,
I am doing away with the mechanical fuel pump and installing electric fuel pumps back near the tanks.
I am running a red wire from the fuse block utilizing the windshield washer pump circuit which is rated at 10 amps.
The red wire will run to the oil pressure switch (NO terminal) and black wire from the starter to the switch (NC terminal).
And blue wire from the switch to the pump. The fuel pumps are rated at 10 amps each and will run only one at a time controlled by a 5 pin relay and the windshield washer pump is rated at 10 amps.
Should I still use a 10 amp fuse on this circuit or increase to 15 or possibly 20?
.
thanks in advance for the advice
