Wire Splicing

Preferably use a crimp splice. If soldering a wire splice, wire movement near
the joint must be avoided otherwise a fracture may occur at the stress point
created by the solder. Use heatshrink sleeving to insulate and provide support
to the wires.

Wire Strain

Avoid pulling the wires tight at the connectors.

Wire Movement

Avoid wire fatigue by tying the wires down close to the connectors.

Heat

Keep the ECU wires away from the exhaust system.

Fuel System

An ideal race fuel system is shown below

Lift Pump

The Lift Pump is a low pressure pump designed to lift the fuel from the fuel
tank to the swirl pot (header tank).

The Lift Pump must be capable of flowing enough fuel for full power operation.
