Could you give us a link to the relay with the built in diode?
I always used 2 relays, because I never quite got the whole diode thing.
Some people were installing diodes in the wire itself. I never knew what to buy or saw anything like an inline diode, similar to an inline fuse.
I agree.
Except his lift pump is only putting out 5 psi, which may indicate the lift pump is not up to snuff, in which case it may take longer to get up to pressure.
Back to things already discussed.
Those look good.
This is what I used.

That's kind of different.
Maybe it has to do with backfeed from using one relay for both the prime feature/ glow plugs & the OPS.
I used a separate relay for each. And just tied the outgoing power wires together. I don't know how to go about tying the diode in.
He's trying to maintain the safety factor of the oil pressure switch/OPS.
IF IN AN ACCIDENT, wired hot, the pump will keep running until power is killed or the battery dies.
If there's a leak it'll empty the tank.
I triggered from.the glow plugs, the toggle switch and the ops.
I wouldn't try matching the 1995.
I'd just wire the 93 by the numbers.
Can you repair the hacked wiring and make it plug and play like Leroy's?
I also install a toggle switch to run the lift pump in demand while changing the fuel filter or doing diagnostics.
I avoid cutting and splicing as...
I mounted mine right by the drivers side battery
The other bonus of adding the relays is, it saves the headlight switches on vehicles that don't already have a headlight relay.
The pressure leak down has to be addressed.
Also run about 1/2 gallon of fuel outlet T drain and note the flow and fuel quality. - I do this about every time I work on something. It only takes a minute. And keeps the water trap cleared out.
I bought plug and play headlight relay upgrades so all 4 bulbs came on with the brights.
They aren't terribly hard to make.
Whoever made my last one found a connector for the headlights - no cutting or splicing. Plug and play.
I might have got them off the GMT400 forum.
@Glagulator...
Does your fuel pressure show 5 lbs immediately when you turn.the key to on?
Or does it take a second for the fuel pressure to come up.?
Maybe others could comment on any leak down you're having.
Seems to me the gauge should read 5 psi almost instantly when you turn the key to run.
