well to start off my little story, i traded my honda recently for a fb with 60K miles on it its only a gs im pretty sure and its a 12a carbed...well the radiator went bad and it was cheaper to buy a huge aftermarket radiator than it was to buy a factory replacement..so i picked up this huge radiator and electric fan from summit which is very close to my house...well i fit it up and realize its not going to fit with the battery so i mount and hook everything up in the car and forgot about the battery...after another week of work i had the cash to do the battery relocation wich wasnt bad at all...i placed the battery in the fatory strage bin behind the passengar seat ran a 2 guage positive wire into the engine bay and mounted another 2guage wire to the factory seatbelt bolt for my ground...in the engine bay i connected the 2guage to a distribution box which i ran wire to the starter and electric fan...but i noticed the kid that had it before my made a huge wire mess hooking up his subwoofer which i took out...well after removing the wire nest i wasnt sure if any fatory wires ran their?..i also noticed a tiny wire coming from the stock positive battery wire is that for my fuel pump?..if so where does it hook up to?...it was to hard to distinguish where it went with the wires all connected in the mess the kid made. anyway the car gets power fine and it only started for a second and shut off and never started again..also i did the flooding proceedure so its not flooded..thanks for the help guys

 

Some people install a fuel pump cut off swich. Sounds like that maybe what you have. Listen to see if the fuel pump is kicking on when you turn the key.

 

ya thats the problem i dont here it....how should i rewire it?

 

can someone piont me in the right direction on rewireing the fuel pump or any fuel pump parts i might need to get fuel back to my engine

 

The fuel pump wire is under the driver side storge bin tap in to it an hook up to 12volt hot wire. To see if you can get the fuel pump to start working. If the fuel pump wont work the fuel pump may be bad.

 

will it still crank? what year is it?

 

PC has 2 important questions. the 84 & 85's fuel pump doesn't run when you turn the key on, only when the engine is cranked or running. I'm assuming the engine does crank since your looking at the possibility of a fuel problem. Simply pour a small amount of fuel into the carb and crank the engine to see if it trys to start. Also if I understand, you said you grounded the battery to the seat belt mount. Make sure you still have a ground between the engine and the body/frame. Its not likely the problem but something you should check especially since you relocated the battery.

 

Your + from the battery should go to the starter, then another wire off of that to the distribution block.

FSMs, with wiring diagrams can be found in my sig line.

 

its is an 85 and the fuel pump does not turn on when the key is in the on position...the car gets power and does turn over...right when i finished the little project its started for a split second and died and didnt start after that...i know it has spark ...the only thing left is fuel im going to go over the entire wireing and see if i can find out what the problem is...thanks for the help guys..another little question is ..i noticed the factory positive battery cable has another little wire coming off of that..what does the little wire hook up to?...i think i have it in the right spot but im not sure

 

im also replacing the fusible lins with fuses i bought today from autozone..maybe 1 went bad during wireing

 

pull your fuel line off, and put it into a jar of sorts, and crank it, see if any fuel comes out.

 

The main + cable goes to the starter, the other smaller + wire powers the rest of the car.

 

thanks for the help i'll try the things you guys told me and see if it work and let you know the results..tghe car has power so i must have wired it right but i still need to see if i have fuell..time to try the jar trick...thanks for the help guys
