    The dirty party of car restoration that nobody shows.

      I may speed it up but I'll keep it honest 😄

    Great vid. I just fixed the pink wire for mine. Fuel pump stopped mid club drive due to it burning out at that very connector. Quite common it would seem. Got home with two jumper leads hooked in series from the positive battery terminal straight to the fuel pump. Haha.

      Thanks for sharing man! I had a feeling it was something due at ignition based on the wiring logic but the wiring diagrams for the V6 models isn't fantastic.
      Won't be doing the bay side of the electrics until I have my "additional ventilation" issue sorted 😅

    Pink and white goes to the petrol pump in rear, black is ground.
    Cheers

    Year ago we had 2 75s. A 2L TS and a 2.5V6 auto. The TS was electrically pretty good, the V6 had been butchered a bit (think the fuel pump had been on the way out, so they had gone mad trying to compensate rather than just replace the relatively cheap pump). Still have the odd part floating around.
    Been sorting out bike wiring looms recently. Hard part is finding the replacement connectors and terminals (a website called Kojaycat has quite a few).

      Thanks for the tip! I managed to find the ignition (dash>Bay) connector relatively easy on eBay. I suspect as the 75 was on the cusp of mass market Motronic and joint venture bosch bits (3bar fuel pump included!) they are still fairly widely available!

      @@lurntwubber , the pump or close (ie, possibly different terminals) was common to loads of cars. For real fun, there was a 2L V6 version of the Alfa 90 built which for some reason had a completely different fuel injection system (not Bosch)
