Where is the fuel pump relay located on an 82 GSL?

 

there isnt one. the fuel pump gets power right from the on terminal of the igntion swtich

Thank you for your reply.



I have a factory service manual for 1985, and it appears to have a relay in the wiring diagram. What year did they add this relay to the 1st gens?



When I put power to the fuel pump (turn the ignition key on), it only registers 9.9 or 10 volts. What would cause the drop in volts?



I ran a wire directly from the battery to the fuel pump and the fuel pump works fine. Why the difference in voltages?

 

they added the relay for 84. if you're only getting 10v at the pump, theres a voltage drop somewhere, perhaps the ignition switch? or the fuse? or the wires might be bad too

Thanks again.



I'll begin checking out the voltage drop.



I was going nuts trying to find the (non existant) fuel pump relay.
