relay question and confusion
ok so I have a 1986 305 TPI now ive been trying to solve the big code 33 36.. I bought all new relays, maf power maf burn off and fuel pump relay..
now the fuel pump relay has 5 wires but the relay I got only has 4 pins part number is ar225 from napa and there all next too eachother like this (_1111)
next is the only 4 wire I have is for the burn off and it looks like this (1_111)
but the burn off relay I got was from orielys and it has 5 pins.. ?????? and so earlier I wasswitching them around I put my maf on my maf burn off relay cause it has 5 connectors and my fuel pump is being ran off of my maf power relay cause it has 5 and my burn off to the new fuel pump relay cause it has 4 but only 3 are connected to pins on this due to the gap in the plug that I shared earlier... should I repin the pigtail to (_1111) to match or should I keep it at (1_111).
the result.. I had cleared all my engine codes tell later and it was my maf burn off that came back.. I think its cuase it wasn't connected to all 4 pins..
but when I had the ses light off I had a really bad hesitation... I would like to say that my min idle and tps are set right on.
what am I missing why is this sooo complicated.
thanks all.

Re: relay question and confusion
The relays should be (1-111)or (11111)napa sold you the wrong relay
The Burn-off relay has 4 pins (1-111) the fuel pump relay and the MAF Sensor Power relay has 5 pins (11111)
This is how a Pontiac TA is,I don't know what you have.Don't repin the pigtails,get the right relays,it sounds like they both gave you the wrong relays.

Re: relay question and confusion
Got it... Finally.. All codes con... Napa and other auto stores gave me the wrong relay but now have the right ones.. And my maf power connector had wires crossed as it was replaced.. So fixed that and everything is good... Thanks for all your help.. You guys are awesome
