Electric fuel system help/questions

aussiestroker · Jul 4, 2011

Ok half way through converting to e fuel,have a few questions.
Am using Aeromotive pressure reg, SD pump, Cat filters pre & after pump.
Have put extra fuse & relay in fuse box in engine bay.
Q 1
On the side of original FPR was a sending unit, fuel pressure I assume.
Do i need this? If so can i T it with my electric FP gauge ?
Q 2
On the side of fuel bowl are 2 wires, Fuel heater ?
Can i use one of these for relay trigger wire?

Thanks

The sensor you see was to trip the fuel filter light. It was activated buy suction not pressure. I use that lead on a hobbs switch to tell me if the fuel pressure drops below 45psi.

The fuel heater wire would be a good choice for your relay trigger. I just got that under the fuse box for the cleanest look possible.

Just wasn't sure what that sensor was & if the other was fuel heater (don't need that here middle of winter o/night min, 8deg C / 46deg F:thumbsup
