Hello, I created this video to detail how to install a fuel pump controller/relay in a VW Bus with an electric fuel pump.

I.ve had one of these well over 4 yrs now. never a problem. maybe just one, the engine is running before I can let off the key. But ten I also use a imi starter. The only reason when cold that push the pedal down, is to set the choke. I try to do that before hitting the key

Thanks. I’m getting ready to put this same controller in my VW Thing. Just wanted to make sure I wired it up correctly. That’s great advice about not screwing holes in your bus gas tank! 🧨Thanks for sharing.

Best of luck with your install. I couldn't find much on how to install these so I thought i would make a video. The wiring diagram that they sent was a bit confusing, but I think I've got it sorted in this video. It has been 4 months and it is working great! Thanks for the feedback.

So glad I found this video. I have been putting this fix off for quite some time. I did notice your fuel exhaust lines. Would you mind telling me how you have it connected where it curves at the middle of the engine. Mine is missing the pieces there; I saw you had a T that connects to the fuel exhaust coming from the right and the other line goes towards the firewall. Any info on parts/pieces and the tubing you used would be greatly appreciated

Just got this thing thank you so much for making this! Since you asked. I would move the pump & regulator out of the engine compartment under the bus. The pump is intended to be below the tank 1 foot away. Fire hazard. How do I know: I put the bus out. Pregnant wife did not put the double cab out. You win some you loose some. As for wire connectors. They make these amazing connectors for wire to wire that you heat with a heating gun & it molds the wires together, very cool. I had put temporary interior wire connectors in the double cab. It back fired and up in smoke. Just put the original rebuilt motor in. I'm still whine about it...Nice tube fire extinguisher it's a must. Wish I had one then. They were not invented yet. We are changing our bus to electric FP and were thinking about powering it at the starter? May just come off the fuse box as we're adding a switch too. Glad you got her working enjoy the road! I always say "You can go 120MPH in your Porsche or 70MPH in your Bus. You get the same thrill."

Yes, I agree, the more you can do to minimize fire danger the better. Especially in these old busses. I'm going to look at repositioning the fuel pump and regulator out of the engine bay.... thanks for the advice!

Thanks, exactly what I was looking for. Is it still ok after 12 months? Any feedback?

What size fuse did you use on the purple wire to the battery?

It is a 30. Not sure if that is too high, but that is what I have in there! Any suggestions on if that seems right?
