did you check to see that you soldered the wires properly? neg to neg and power to power?
OK so when the engine RPM exceeds 2000 RPM the I/C pump should kick on and stay on until the engine is turned off, right? . . . THAT is good information.
Yes, I am sure that I had the new pump wired correctly + to + and - to -
After the installation I did a short test run getting the engine up to operating temperature and doing a few speed runs . . . the car ran great with the supercharger definitely working but when I got it back home I noticed that there was no I/C coolant flow going into the reservoir and I was concerned that the newly separated I/C cooling system was not flowing at all. That's when I started to troubleshoot the pump and could not confirm that the pump was ever running. I disconnected the wiring and hooked up the pump directly to a 12V power source . . . the pump did not come on. Has to be a defective pump, right?
