Ive recently aquired an electric fuel pump for my 126 but I'm trying to think of the right way to wire it in... should I take a feed from the ignition or fit a seperate switch and a small seperate fuse holder... any input would be welcomed heres a shiny pic of a supercharger in thanks-  |

Either or both! When I put an eectric pump on the SAAB I wired it from the ignition and added a seperate hidden switch as a basic antitheft device. You can laso get inertia switches so the pump is cut off if you hit something hard. Thats a nice blower installation! Looks like a B-V8?  |

Also consider wiring it through the oil pressure warning switch using a suitable relay. That way if the engine cuts out due to failure or a crash, the fuel pump shuts off itself. Make sure its wired up so that the pump primes when the ignition goes on, but cuts out if the oil switch closes, otherwise there will be no fuel as you crank the engine to start it.
