I don't know if it will run backwards, but mine did have a + and a - molded into the plastic near the terminals.� I had tagged the wires upper and lower but did not know which was the +� or - terminal.� I�could�recall the mounting orientation�by the dirt/undercoating/clamp marks from the mounting bracket on the pump body and it worked fine when reinstalled.

Since I upgraded my engine and harness to 2.1 I also installed a 2-wire fuel
pump power/ground hook up.

The question... which is which plug at the fuel pump?  I don't recall
seeing
any + or - signs on the fuel pump body.   Does the fuel pump run backwards
if you get them backwards?

I have the battery in and now am cranking my newly installed engine, so I
want to make sure I'm pumping fuel in the right direction.
