* Attaching wires properly to the SDS supplied fuel pumps is cumbersome once they are mounted in the tunnel. The nuts are tiny and you need to torque the nut against the underlying nut to avoid twisting the hole post, and you need to be careful not to strip the post. Consider putting wires on them before you mount them. SDS suggests using 15A breakers for the pumps (and they confirm that this is sufficient) however the pumps have a note engraved to use 20A ones. If you go with 20A breakers, you will need AWG 12 wire, else 14 for 15A. | |||
