Red - ignition/injection +ve
Green, - the ignition coil
Blue - fuel pump
Black - ?

Cheers Dicko!
Rite, i was assuming the blue wire was for the fuel pump, wot else does a plain blue wire go 2?

Also, the oil pressure sensor/warning light, does it have some sort of cut out if the oil gets 2 hot?

well in pressure maybe but why would a pressure sensor have a temp cutoff lol
some are variable and some have a cutoff. with the cutoff they just say whe the pressure is low. the varialble display the actual pressure all the time.

Also i have no wire for a fuel pump as the lump thats in ther is a carbed with no electric pump, so do i just run a wire to the pump, wot does it connect to then? the ignition coil?
Thanx in hand!

u need a fuel pump relay and holder (get one outta a 1.2i from the scrapyard) or get any generic switching relay

the relay needs a 12v feed (best if its ignition switched) and a ground, then the input to the coil and the output to the pump

the lead off the loom for the engine is the INPUT to the relay

dont ask me colors cos i dunno :D

the GTE loom should have the realay built in, and the wire to the pump is on that big wiring conector for the loom. Run some good quality 20amp(ish) wire to the +ve on the fuel pump (i did mine along the sill then made asmall hole in my boot floor). the -ve can just be wired to any earth conection
