Alright putting my stock setup motor in, i put one of the yellow,power wires on the solenoid on the negative side and when i turned the ignition swith nothing happened...
I figured what i did wrong and now my fuel pump does not prime,when i turn the ignition to the on position...
I reset the enertia switch in the trunk..didnt work.
I hot wired the fuse under the seat and it worked , i can hear the pump running thd whole time, so i replaced the fuse with another one but that did not work... It only worked when i hotwired it .

Any ideas to why its not working?
