Subject:Re: What component causes the fuel pump to come on for a second or two when I turn on the ignition to the first position (no cranking)?

The connector behind the air cleaner is the fuel pump power wire from the
pump relay to the pump. Up till mid 86 it is a single wire and the pump
ground wire is grounded to the body near the pump. After that it is 2 wires
and the pump ground wire runs from the pump back all the way to the body
near the ignition coil, via that 2 pin connection by the air cleaner.
