I installed my new 255 fuel pump. I ran a power wire to where the fuel pump is located from the battery. What wires do I cut off the plug that plugs into the fuel pump to hook up to the relay?
 
One suggestion I'd make regarding the Raktron how-to is to mount the relay outside the rubber grommet in the FP cover. This gives you a lot more room, and you can bolt the relay to the chassis under the passenger side panel (the one with the speaker grill). If you draw out on paper what the Rakton article is saying, that'll help. You'll end up extending the stock 12V FP power wire to wherever you mount the relay, and I'd extend this with 10ga wire, because that's kinda central to the rewire purpose.

It's just too crowded under that FP cover.

I just did the Raktron-style rewire about 2 weeks ago and found another article that mounted the relay like what I'm suggesting - DOH!
