Exclamation fuel pump cutoff help

i have a 1987 rx7 base model and i cant start it without unplugging the fule punmp then looking like an *** to run to plug it in when the car cranks... ive tryed to make a cutoff switch but the 2 wires i know its supposed to be DONT DO Anything when you cut them the car keeps running!

so far ive cut the blue and the black wire neither killed it.. i dont wanna hack up the other two so i figured id ask if anyone els has had this problem...

the car came with the pump installed... I got the thing for $200 so im finding lots of upgrades and downgrades as i work with it. And the fuel pumpt kill switch has been solved.
