Disaster Struck
So my car had what I suspect was a failed fuel line on Weds which led to a massive car fire. Everything under the hood wires / plastic / hoses got cooked. Even had some fire get into the cabin on the passenger side just forward of the shifter on the tunnel next to the gauges. So I am getting ready for an adjuster come and get the car but I know they will want mileage for a virtual adjustment prior to having the car towed. I have a squash dual pump system in the car and if i turn the key on it will just spray fuel from the broken line. Would just pulling the fuel system control fuse in the trunk stop that pump from coming on?

Just disconnect the main pump(s) wiring from the battery. Relay will still come on but no power to the pumps.

Totally forgot I wired them directly to the battery, its been about 5 years since I did the fuel system.

That sucks. Sorry that happened. Where did your fuel line break at?
