Jp.
Yes relay a Haka I was born in England (a lot of years ago) so perhaps a morris dance may be more appropriate (maybe not). When it’s time to do my timing belt thing I’ll shout you a trip across the ditch, they say experience is everything, we’ll Haka together.

Damn, trust me to buy a hybrid Shark.
Wally. (my G** it’s the 928 Guru)

Your instructions are Clear and concise, thank you.
I delved into the back of the central power panel. Boy! It’s scary back there, all that gray stuff, I felt like a Brain Surgeon, really enjoying myself I was. Deborah (my wife) said it must be a Boy thing.
Pins 30, 87 & 86 are exactly as you say. However, pin 87 uses Fuse #13 not #22 as per the Fuse/Relay chart I downloaded from 928gt.com (It’s an 83-84 chart).
Pin 85 has one wire at the rear, which goes to plug X, connection #1, then a yellow wire directly to earth. This, I’m sure is not original Porsche as the yellow wire has been cut and spliced to a black wire that is bolted to the chassis (looks new with a modern Hella clip). If I disconnect #1 the pump stops, maybe I should just add an on/off switch to the yellow line

Three things I need to Know.
1: What & where is the LH ECU (I only have the Owners Manual, US one unfortunately)
2: How can I tell whether I have LH Jetronic, with a hot wire Mass Air Sensor or moving door Mass Air Flow sensor.
3: What do I do now.

Thank you for your time and knowledge.
Joe

On the LHD cars, the ECUs (Engine Control Units, sometimes called the brains) are just beside the central power panel on the passenger's kick panel (again, USA terminology - the triangular panel on the outside that the passenger would kick).

If there are two cigar box-sized silver cases there, the one nearer the outside of the car (again, USA) is the LH, or injection ECU, while the one on the inside is the EZK or ignition box.

If you have the LH ECU, pull the large connector off, and hold it horizontally, looking at the terminals with the cable exiting the right end.

Terminal 1 is at the lower right end, 18 at the lower left end.

Terminal 19 is at the upper right end (over 1), 35 at the upper left end.

Pin 85 of the fuel pump relay should be attached to terminal 20, second from the right end on top.

Hope that this helps. Sorry for any confusion, but I am not all that familiar with the RHD Hong Kong cars.

Sorry for the slow response, work got in the way.

The rear of the relay (at back of power panel) only has 4 connections, so the 4 pin relay must be right for this car.

I’ve had a good look for the LH ECU and the EZK and can’t find them. The only thing near the central power panel is a small black box, part #928 641 603 04, I guess this is some sort of light control unit. I’ve followed wires from the central power panel to the front and rear of the car, but still no luck. The only thing resembling a cigar box-sized silver case is under the hood, drivers side (RHD), on it is Bosch 0 227 100 008. Six wires lead to this box, 2 black, 1 green, 1 brown, 1 black/violet and 1 white wire that’s been spliced to a green wire running from the distributor (distributor only has this one wire running from it) looks like this may be some sort of ignition unit.

Thank you Wally for your help.
Joe
