After I installed the 2GCDFIS ...

So after I completed this mod to the ignition system , every time I turn the key to ON
, I hear a ticking at the fuel pump. I understand the pump is on once you turn the key. The car doesn't run bad. But the ticking is annoying

Is there a special wire concerning the fuel pump when doing the ignition ?

Video coming soon

Yeah that's true . But before the mod. It wasn't as apparent. More like a hum. Now its a tick .

New ignition will be sucking down more juice, may affect the juice going to the pump. Is the
pump using stock wiring or has it been relayed to get power directly from the battery? I bet its still
the stock wiring powering it.

Its stock . And that makes sense.

A distressed pump may tick right ?

I know they get noisier when the voltage is too low.
