79 wiring diagram

Post by rlux4 »

I met a guy at a fencing supply company I shop at and seeing my Fiat hat he got all exited. He just got a 79 and doesn't know anyone with a Fiat and he's in the process of restoring his. He called today to see if we could get together and figure out why his fuel pump isn't getting power. I looked up Brad Artigue's diagrams but the one for 79-carb'd 80s doesn't show the fuel pump circuit. Does anyone know where I can find a diagram that includes it or can tell me how the circuit runs. I'm guessing it doesn't have a dual relay like our FI cars have in the circuit. :lol:

Well, that shows how often I had the hood up on my first Spider, a 79.
So, mechanical fuel pump, probably no wires going to it, huh? :lol:
OK then, a PO has put in an electrical pump which should make tracing the wire easier.
Thanks Mark.
