The number of fuses or relays dont determine whether wiring to any loads are good....wiring determines that ! lol.chodjinn wrote:Interesting Stevie, from what I have read the dual fuel pump relays is to ensure that both pumps get a decent amp feed. But then again you have direct experience! And I wouldn't be running anywhere near the power you are. Pumps are a basic HP electric lift pump and a Sytec HP pump. I may change it to one relay then.
The FIA kill switch comes with the relay attached, you have to use them for racing to ensure total kill of engine.
I've already got the FIA kill switch, push button start/relay and a bunch of other stuff left over from my MGB project so will be using those (all new).
And you're right, the alternator is a 3/4 wire. Will have a rethink.
I'm pretty happy on the individual circuits for the moment, it's getting the ignition/battery/alternator all wired up I'm still not sure on
You could just as easily wire it crap with multiple fuses and relays as you could with 1 and visa versa.
If it's good it's good, if it's bad it's bad.
And although there are multiple wires on the alternator plug, it may only be a single wire you need to "excite" it, just make sure you look into it and get it right.
Some modern stuff are electronically controlled, often by the engine ecu. Not 100% sore on the strategies they use whether they do actually regulate voltage or whether it's a simple trigger from the ecu
But I did manage to blow one up on a friends Subaru a few years ago by mucking about lol
