    We had a problem where the car would stop runnning and thought that it was the fuel pump because the vehicle would start then run for like a few seconds then die. Replaced the fuel pump and it did the same thing. Well low and behold, we learned that there was a fuel pump resistor in the fuel pump circuit which blew out causing this problem. After replacing it, it ran ok for a few months then it happened again. Replaced the resistor and now is running ok, knock on wood. Just wondering what would happen if we eliminatd this resistor, I know the fuel pump will run at full speed. Will this hurt anything?

    Guys bypass the resistor all of the time with no ill effects...myself included. Just bend the pin on the relay and be done with it.

    You could make a pwm circuit.
