When I had my motor rebuilt, the mechanic wanted to scrap the VRO system for peace of mind and I said "ok". To the best of my knowledge, he only removed the tank, plugged the oil intake on the fuel pump and cut off the wires from the fuel pump. I didn't ask though, but those things I can tell by just looking.
Well, I just replaced the fuel pump last weekend b/c it had gone bad and now that I have a new pump, I really want the VRO system back - I like the idea of not premixing and not running 50:1 at idle, etc.
I bought a VRO tank off Ebay - said it was the "newer" style - I really don't know the difference, but it is brand new.
Anyway, my issues are this. My new pump has a 4-pin harness coming off of it - I have no idea where this goes. I can't find an empty 4-pin connection on the motor anywhere. Also, there is wiring coming out of the VRO tank - a 2-pin - once again, no idea where it connects. My fear is that these harnesses on the motor where cut, spliced, etc - not sure if they would need to be in order to disable VRO or not. Any help or pics of a fully wired system would be great!! Thanks"
