Re: wire color

What fuel pump will you be running though? Most have to run new power and ground wires to support the power loads.

Re: wire color

Make sure that any filters used past the Fuel Pumps can handle the Flow of the Fuel Pumps...
Do not use a filter that flows significantly less than the Pumps, it can create a restriction.
