[QUOTE="QtrHorse, post: 66506, member: 1644"] I would check to make sure you have a good ground. What size of wire are you using for the power wire? If you are using 14ga, that may also be your problem. You want the least amount of resistance going to a fuel pump. I would recommend 10ga wire. Below is a picture of the Bosch 75A relay. They are quite large but not as large as a starter type relay. I have used these large relays in the past to supply power to a small add on fuse block. You do need a continuous duty relay. How exactly did you wire/ make your home made wire harness? Did you run power directly from the battery to the relay or use a power wire from a harness or fuse panel? If you want some good reading on 12V electrical, look at the bcae1.com website. It has a lot of very good 12V information on it. It has subforums for things such as relays only and how to wire them/ use them to turn things on or off.
