89 Manual Kick, 4x4, JX 1.6 ltr 8 valve USA
My Fuel Relay has gone bad; I believe. First, Jr (the name of my kick) revved up and down during cold start till warmed up, then started losing power uphill, then ran at start up intermittently, (would start, then stall, and then not start for a few tries) and now will not start at all. This has been going on till now; not starting at all, over the past few months.
I did the listen test; turned ignition on, then went to listen at the open gas cap. No sound coming from pump at all.
I cannot afford a new relay right now, and Jr is my only ride, so must try to rewire the pump; bypassing the relay, to a cheap manual toggle switch. Can I do this? And if so, which wires would I need to attach to a toggle switch?
Reason I ask, is because most vehicles use the auto toggle switch within the relay only two times each use: turning the pump on at ignition start up, then turning it off at ignition shut down.
Is this the same with my Kick?
