One of the switch leads connects, via an in-line fuse, to the + side of the coil; the other side of the switch connects to the kick down solenoid connection which you can only FEEL. It is a 1/4" spade connector embedded in the tranny case, facing straight UP, directly over the LR corner of the AT pan. You'd never find it on your own. > Question 2 - I'm hooking back up the fuel injection system after replacing > all the fuel lines.

The computer turns on the pump when the key goes on, but turns it off if the engine has not turned over for 1-1.5 seconds. This is for safety, so the pump will not keep running afte you have an accident that is sever enough to stop the engine.

The pump is supposed to run only as long as the engine is running, it has nothing to do with pressure, that is regulated mechanically. The best way to run the pump is to use a jumper wire across the tz& ‚ut terminals of the fuel pump relay.
