17. Connect the factory fuel level wiring to the Aeromotive fuel level terminals.
NOTE: You must install a by-pass style regulator (Aeromotive part # 13303 for A1000, 13305 for Eliminator, or
13134 for 3.5 and 5.0) with return line in order for the fuel pump to function correctly. Failure to do so will
result in poor performance and fuel pump/system failure.
18. Feed and return lines need to be plumbed into the vehicle now. It’s recommended to run -AN-08 feed for A1000, and
AN -10 feed for Eliminator, 3.5, and 5.0 pump assemblies. The return line should be AN-08. Fuel lines should be
routed and secured away from moving suspension components and exhaust pipes.
19. The Brushless Aeromotive fuel pump controller requires its own relay and 12V power wire along with a 0-5 volt analog
input for the use of the True Variable Speed function. The use of Aeromotive fuel pump wiring kit (part # 16307) is
recommended to power the A1000, Eliminator, and 3.5 remote mount brushless pump controller, use (part # 16308)
for the 5.0 remote mount brushless pump controller. Note: Since the factory Ford fuel pump is pulse modulated
you CANNOT use the factory fuel pump wires to trigger the relay or the 0-5v input for the True Variable Speed
function.
20. As mentioned above, the Brushless Pump Assemblies are controlled by a remote mount brushless pump controller,
which must be installed correctly in order for the pump to function properly. Refer to the following instructions on wiring
the brushless controller or refer to the instructions provided with the included controller itself, PN: 180-48A1-0F-01.
21. Determine a suitable location to mount the new controller remote from the pump considering the following:
a. It is recommended to keep the controller-to-motor lead wire lengths as short as possible for best pump
performance.
b. If desired, motor lead extensions can be used but should be kept as short as possible and lead extensions
should be sized large to keep electrical resistance low (you may even want to use a larger size for the
extensions than the provided leads for long extensions).
c. The controller is fully sealed so it can be mounted externally (frame rail, e.g.). The controller sink is designed to
be able to handle low air flow so it can also be mounted internally (trunk, e.g.). However, for best results, it is
recommended to mount the controller such that it will receive the most and coolest air flow.
When mounting the controller externally and in a location that will likely receive air flow from driving, mount the
controller with fins parallel to the airflow and, if possible, upward (not required with sufficient air flow) as in the
following image.
