help!! racetronix kit quit working!

i have the full racetronix kit, it has been working for the 3 years its been in the car i thought the pump died so i pulled it and hard wired it to the batt for a split second to hear it fire. so the pump is good, but the pump wont fire with the key on. i checked the fuse and its good, i checked all the wires the appear to be corrosion free and tight. im at a loss! please help! also the pump this summer has stopped working and i went out back opened the acces hole and tapped the cover and it turned back on.

Remove the plug from the top of the sending unit & clean the contacts. Then check your grounds. If the pump is out, then clean the internal tank contacts as well.

should the pump fire on while its out side of the tank? or does it ground out partly on the tank?

The pump will prime sitting outside of the tank.

That will only last so long once the plating is gone.

Perhaps you should consider a replacement bulkhead connector assembly P/B FLT-BCA.

You can special order this through a supporting vendor like Harris Speedworks or Thunder Racing
