I am adding duel 97s on a 51 merc and am putting an electric fuel pump by the tank.would it be ok for me to splice into the fuel gauge sensor wire or do i have to run a wire up to the ignition?
Thanks:confused:

:eek: NO NO NO!!!!!You need a switched relay or.... you will burn!!!:LOL: LOw voltage kills pumps and when u run a wire that long thru a switch,well things get hot in a hurry!!Its also a good idea to put in a oil saftey switch.
As was stated above Don't do that :eek: It wouldn't work anyway. Run a seperate lead thru a relay off a switched fused source(ignition switch)
And remember 97's don't like much fuel pressure at idle or they will fluid.
