83 12a fuel pump fuse location?

My fuel pump went out and upon checking there is no power to the pump so I believe the fuse has blown but I can't find the fuse location. I know its a 20 amp but cant find it in the manual.

Look on the bottom of the fuse box lid.

It says all of them on there.

(yeah I did the same exact thing and when I saw it I was like "oh elle oh elle")

None of the spaces on the fuse box cover show fuel pump and they all appear to be good

Wiring schematic show that a 20A fuse is present for the Emission control system, fuel pump and Charging system, but it doesn't show where it is located. It shows a BW wire (black and white)

Now I have to go outside and check myself. Last time I was playing with fuses I remember one said fuel.

But maybe that's one of the differences for the transition between 82 and 83.

I rotated out every fuse but to no avail, I suspect this fuse is located elsewhere..

If a guy really needs a cutoff switch to prevent theft you could just pull that fuse when you park at night. Saves all the trouble of wiring in a switch and maybe a relay.
