pontoontodd Posted 12 hours ago Author Share Posted 12 hours ago B and I worked on the secondary fuel tank for the Impreza. I pressure tested it and flushed it out, seems like it doesn't have any leaks even at 30psi. I got the mounting flaps carved up so it fits and matched up the bumper mount holes. We had to do a little more hammering in the spare tire well. We came up with a plan on how we want to mount the fuel pumps and run the hoses. I need to get another pump, some hoses and fittings. Going to try to get wire connectors for the ABS wires so we can use those for the fuel pumps since they're already running front to back and will never be used for ABS again. B replaced the cabin air filter and cleaned out the airbox and blower fan, they were all loaded with debris. He also traced the brake lines under the hood and we came up with a plan on eliminating the ABS module and plumbing the left/right steering brake from the black Outback. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slammo Posted 46 minutes ago Share Posted 46 minutes ago You think those ABS signal wires are heavy enough to run a fuel pump, or are you just using them to trigger a relay? Good thing you have a cabin air filter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thing you have a cabin air filter. Good point I'll take a look at the gauge of those wires. Won't be under much pressure so according to the internet it'll draw 4-5 amps and even 22 gauge wire should be adequate. Definitely not getting any relays involved. Thanks again for the cabin air filter tip. We were discussing how full of junk the evaporator would be without it. Like the one on the black Outback was.

slammo Posted 20 minutes ago Share Posted 20 minutes ago If you're planning on using a full-pressure fuel pump to deliver to the engine bay, the ABS wiring definitely won't be adequate. Plenty of people say the stock fuel pump wiring isn't adequate lol. But if you're just using a transfer pump to move from aux to main tank, maybe the current draw will be low enough.
