you can just cut it and use those butt connectors. but those wires look burnt going to the top of the hat connector your power and float signal . your going to have problems if you put it back in like that.gonna end up doing it again because of that connector.
Thank you. I found a thread on the Internet of someone else installing a Walbro pump in a grand national. Exact same issues I am having needing to eliminate the damper and the wire connections not being the same as the instructions describe. Thank you for your response!
I have the white wire going to the + side of the fuel pump. I tested it with the pump on the ground. Pump ran when I turned on the ignition, but i read that it would pump backwards if wires are reversed
