For what reason do you need one-you already have the oil pressure switch in the event of an accident-no oil pressure the fuel pump is disable

Find the gray wire at the fuel pump connector and cut it open at your toggle switch connect one wire to the wire coming from the engine and the other going into the fuel pump then go hide it somewhere close by you

You can do it right there at the fuel pump wire connector or find the fuel pump relay tie in at the gray wire

The same color wire at the relay and at the pump if I were you do it at the relay side instead at the pump side prevents you from crawling underneath lol
