Fuel pump relay

[Alan461]

Hi gents,
New relay needed to eliminate an intermittent lack of fuelling on hot start.
The spade connections are sited differently to the normal arrangement,
30 and 87 are adjacent as are 85 and 86. These are usually opposite.
Switching remains the same but a normal relay won't operate.

Question is whether to swap the plug for a standard one and use a standard relay
Or find a relay with this unusual connection?

I just quoted the number written on mine to Ford, who replaced it with a new one. Didn't look at the pins as it only fits one way!!

Thanks fellas, I'll see if I can get the Ford one

A useful reference, scroll down to page 3.7



I went looking for one on Ebay a while back, thought I'd found one but when I asked seller to cross check numbers it was wrong, but he had a couple of "right" ones ......... and for not a lot of money



Certainly wasn't anywhere near this much !



Must be one here somewhere?
