Fuel pump/EEC wiring

Hello, I am in the process of converting my 93 F350 with 7.5L over to carb. I am wanting to use the stock fuel pump relay to control the fuel pump and the EEC relay to control some other stuff. These relays are ground switched correct? Are these grounded through the ignition switch? Does anyone have any good wiring diagrams for this year with 7.5L? Thanks

Go to eBay and search "1993 Ford EVTM" and buy one for your truck. They are very handy.

The ECU grounds the fuel pump relay to turn it on. You can simply install a oil pressure switch in the engine block and the fuel pump will turn on when it sees oil pressure. That's the safest, easiest way to do it.

No they are not.
The Fuel Pump relay is grounded by pin #22 of the PCM.
The PCM Power relay is tied to a ground point (LH front of engine compartment, on upper radiator support).

I figured out the fuel pump thanks! So, the eec relay should have power output when the key is on correct?

Yes, the eec relay gets it's power directly from the ignition switch 'run' and 'start' position circuits.
