[Shotimes] Problem Pinpointed

[shewitt]

There is no problem with installing an external relay.  Splice a wire to the trigger wire going into the CCRM for the fuel pump.  This will energize the relay.  Then have a normally open contact connected from a fused battery connection to the fuel pump + wire.  I have heard of others doing this with success.  Make sure the relay is rated for a few amps - like a fog light relay.
