Re: [Chrysler300] Cold start--Electric fuel pump

[Ray Jones <hurst300@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sounds like y'all are picking up your power at the wrong place. You 
don't want to use the "Start" circuit at all. Use the "ON" side of the 
Ing. switch, and from there to both switches. From both switches to the 
pump. Actually, it only takes one wire on either leg. From the Ing. 
switch "ON" to the momentary button, with a jumper to the toggle 
switch. That supplies power to both. Out of the push button to the 
"OUT' side of the Toggle and then to the pump. This way it will only 
work with the ing. switch ON, and using either button or toggle will 
send current ONLY to the pump as the other switch is not used and 
leaves an open in the circuit. Turn your Ing. switch on, push the 
button until it stops "ticking" and then start. If the mechanical pump 
quits, flip the toggle, and use the Elec. Pump to get ya home. And when 
you turn off the Ing. switch, the pump's off even it you forget to 
switch the toggle off.

Hope that's clear without a diagram.

  Warren,

  I agree it could be a problem having a pump connection made both 
through the
  starter solenoid and a separate momentary switch, in that the momentary
  switch could energize energize the starter, IF the car was in neutral,
  otherwise the neutral safety switch would be open and not allow 
current flow
  to the starter relay. I think I'll just stick with one switch 
controlling
  the pump, either the starter solenoid or the separate pushbutton, but 
not
  both.
