Is my car an oddball ?(fuel pump wiring)

[Welby]

Was going to order the Walbro 340 and hotwire kit from Racetronix real soon, and noticed that there are two different kits, depending on the connector. It says that '87 cars come with a black connector, and that " '84, '85 and some '86's " come with an orange one. Well, my Limited is an '87, but it has the orange connector?
Any cause for suspicion, or is it common? Regardless, I assume that I'm going to be buying the G75-FPA kit, rather than the G77? Correct me if I'm wrong

Thanks, Mark

check the actual connector style and not the color i think mine had the same thing.

Does this help any?

ahh my memory has been refreshed now. if you have the black, purple, grey wires then you need the '87 harness.

that was the same problem i had when i went to order my harness too.

That looks like my 87 GN's connector. Mine is orange too.

Drop the tank and make sure if your that worried about it. It's the connection to the pump that changed.

It all comes down to the wires NOT the connector!

I'd hardly say I'm worried about it

Just want to make sure I order the right stuff the first time. Kind of a "measure twice, cut once" situation

Thanks for the help, guys..

but if you drop the tank which you have to do anyway, there would be no mistake as to what pump to order.

Dropping the tank means down time,,nobody wants to be away from their baby ....

How much driving have you done in the past month?

 

[Welby]

Me? Actually I just brought the car out of storage and my classic plate finally came in. I took it out for a few short rides over the weekend, but that's it. Problem is, there's 7/8 of a tank of gas in it that I need to burn off before dropping the tank. Plus, what Bandaid said

but it's cool, I know what I need to now to buy the right thang
