so i finally did it i broke down and bought all the parts pumps fittings to put a fuel cell in my truck( 99 sonoma with the 2.2l) and ditch the gas tank that sits in my bed.... i got a polished fuel cell (summit part number RCI-2151AS) and a msd fuel pump (msd-2225) along with all the plumbing to take the fuel line from a 8AN to a 6AN both for my feed line and my return line..... the problem that i am facing now is that i dont know how to wire the danm thing..... can i just use the poser for the fuel pump from the stock wireing that would be really nice.... also i dont know how to hook up the sending unit for my gas gauge.... how do i do all of this and what wires do i use the pluming is easy its just all the electrical shit that gose with it..... any help i can get i would appreciate it...

around 350 total got thefuel cwll from e-bay for like 175 a pump from summit for like 100 and fittings and hose was like another 100 but i got steel braid so you could probably save some money and get regular hose

there should be 4 wires on your stock sending unit there will be 2 grounds and 2 powers you just have to extend 2 wires to the pump and 2 wires to the cell for the sending unit. to figure out which wires were what i cut one wire at a time and then turn the key and see if you hear the pump working and check the gauge. then the one that dont work is either the power or ground for that
