if I may ..  ( yup ..anengine conversion vanagon )
Ibelieve the orignal conern or problem had to do with drawing too much
current through the black 15 wire on Neil's van.
- more than an air-cooled van is used to have drawn through that wire.

I have seen a van or two with full time 'key on' power to the fuel pump ..
not good in terms of crash/fire safety.

heck !   That reminds me, I have in one of my vans a 2.1 waterboxer ecu
that has suppossidly been chipped .
It doesn't run any stronger than stock..
and ...fuel pump is running any time the key is on. Bad bad.
