With a no start on the REDO, down the rabbit hole we go.

When the key was turn on, I couldn't hear the fuel pump coming on and there was no Pressure on the gauge on the fuel rail.

Checked the Relay - replaced still no fuel pump turning on.

Checked the connector down under the car by the fuel pump. intact- still no fuel pump

Took the relay off the connector.

Jumped the ORG wire which is constant 12V to the Tan/wht wire, which goes to the fuel pump and the fuel pump comes on! 8)

The Grn/wht wire on the relay connector was jumped to the tan/wht and the ignition turned on.  The Grn/wht wire comes from the ECM and it gives 12v for 2 seconds when the key is turn on to prime the fuel pump.  When this was done nothing happened

The Clear ECM connector shows Pin 20 as an orange wire and has 12V constant.  Tested that wire and no power.

Ran a jump from 12V to the ORange wire on pin 20.  THen redid the test with the Grn/wht wire on the relay connector and we now have power!! ::thumbup

Instead of Trying to find where the orange wire on PIN was getting its power, I ran a new wire with a 10amo fuse block to the fusible link.

Put it all back together, all working fine now!

Moving 1986 miles is interesting endeavor, to say the least

At the end of April took the REDO and a bunch of other items to the new location.
At the end of June took another trailer load, tools compressor household goods.

2nd to the last picture shows the REDO current resting spot until the cabana/shop is completed.

Getting ready to move the REDO this spring and removed the 2ft ramps and installed 6ft.  No issues with getting the car in

Also installed a flush mount in floor winch system. 

Pretty happy with the results

Some progress on the REDO, batwings up and down!

Used a couple of linear actuators, Two relays and reversed the polarity
two momentary switches, one for up the other for down

At the top of the actuator a replica OE part attaches to the batwing
At the bottom of the actuator,  made a bracket out of tubing

Not a lot of progress on the REDO as I was working on my 02 F350 7.3L. Now that that is done the REDO is top priority, until it isn't  ::toothy

Bat Wings installed using replica OE hinges and actuator's for the up/down motion.  Relay wired etc.  The body gaps between the wings and engine bonnet caused me quite a bit of grief and endless adjustment.  Finally did a REDO and added some width to the passenger side and sanded the drivers' batwing.

Set up a mini paint booth in the heated shop to paint.  Too cold in the other building

Got the Taillights and grills fitted

Onward!! :CSS
