They feel more secure driving themself, and nobody has to throw up during the drive. ::)

Anders, how do you hook the relay up to the coil?

Pardon for not answering, I've been busy last week.
You can grab it directly from the coil with an additional wire under the car (I've got a whole extra loom running there now) or you can take it from the rev counter.

Or get all you need from the testconnecter.



P3 = -bobine and you can take +contact as well there at P6

I think I will split wires there because I couldt not find a plug for the connecter.

Just checked with the supplier now, the Facet red/silver top pumps can be mounted horizontaly. but they are pressure pumps, so they are not to happy with sucking the fuel. but for the little distance that there is in the Murena, it wouldn't be a problem.

attention with the connector it is necessary to control the connection because on much the murena the connections do not correspond to the diagram of the technical review  :-\

I tested it out on my connector (2.2 1982) and it was just as the manual said.
Ofcourse it is best to control first in case they changed the layout.

I build the same electronics that Anders uses and bought a Empi Fuel pump that works at 0.27 bar.
That about the pressure the mechanical pump gives.
On Ebay €35 shipment included.
Its ready to fit...if I only had time.




Oetker, have you installed this pump? If yes, could you send some photos or advice for installation?
I found the pump on ebay and I am thinking of buying one...

Yep it is fitted since 2009 and working perfect.

I replaced my steering boot gaiters and the old ones I used to put in the pump.
I let the pics speak for them self.





The pump is hanging free, and you don't hear the pump at all.

What a nice idea!
I have already bought new gaiters so I will think it over.

What other parts should be fitted for this electric system?

Does it influence the fuel consumption?

There are several options.
This was the first basic setup wiring and bought and made some things.


After some thinking, I like to keep things more simple.
The electric module is placed, and I made the engine-wiring new.
The car is running fine now, and have no electric problems.
The electric pump is great and after months of standing parked, the car starts first touch of the button.
In time I will  change things but I am satisfied for the moment.

If Oetker does not have the time, you could try to call some of the Indian tech support folks that live here:  ;D

Bit of info:-
I use a Silver Top Facet Fuel Pump mounted on rubber bushes for my 2 x 45 D.C.O.E. Weber's.
These pumps should not be fitted more than 45cm. above the bottom of the fuel tank and the outlet should be minimum of 30 deg. above the horizontal.
An oil pressure cut of switch is reccomended and used by me. Plus for my personal preference I use Filter King Pressure Regualtor and Filter aft of the pump.
Obviously I have more room than the usual Matra which made it easier for me to install.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately I am not good at electronics so I have to study the options...

But surely I will try to keep Indians far from my car...   :D
