I replaced my fuel pump with a used one. The electrical sockets are different. My old one had 4 wires and now the other one has 3 wires. The Pump gets voltage for a second as I first turn over the engine and the fuel sender registers 8 v. But the gas gauge does not register. I am asking for a wiring diagram or a lead in what direction to go.

Welcome to the forum. What did the used pump come off of, year---make-- and model. I spent 30 minutes trying to find wiring info on your vehicle. For me, the older systems are sometimes hard to find wiring info. If the fuel tank sending was for a digital instrument cluster and the used one is for a different type cluster. I'm not sure I can help you?

My info for the 92 shows the fuel pump sending unit sends a signal to the BCM, the bcm, in turn, sends a serial data signal to the instrument cluster. If you use a used pump the used one needs to be exactly like the one you took out, connector and all.

I found this diagram at showmetheparts.com/airtex/

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
