Some of you may know I am planning to a single port aux fuel kit in the near future. Some have inquired if I was going to make a Plug and Play (PnP) wiring harness since the Statified Xtra Fuels System comes with Posi-Tap connectors that tap into the necessary signal wires in the OEM wiring harness.
For those that would rather not use a wire tap, there is another option; install a jumper between the coil pack connectors and MAP connector. This requires electrical connectors that mate up to the OEM connectors. The idea is that you tap into the wire in the jumper assembly rather than the OEM harness wiring. This is a more expensive option but will make the kit truly Plug and Play without the need to tap the OEM harness wiring. My initial thought is that these jumpers will add more clutter under the hood due to there simply being more wiring and connectors but you can make that choice when it comes to your install. This is just sharing information and options.
I have ordered and test fit the necessary connectors to the OEM harness connectors. The coil pack connectors fit as expected but the MAP connector will requires a small modification in order to fit. The reason is that the MAP connector has a unique internal keying so you must make a small modification for it to fit correctly. This can be done fairly easily but must also be done carefully as to not damage the structure of the connector. More information to come on that once I decide how I would like to do that modification.
**Disclaimer - My vehicle is a 2014 Ford Fiesta ST so I cannot account for any harness changes Ford made on any other model year (although I don't see any reason as to why they would be different)
I planned to build these using 18 AWG, TXL wire. That's important because these terminals and seals are meant to be used with a specific gauge of wire (actually a specific range of wiring, i.e. 24-18 AWG).
I'll update the thread once I get my jumpers actually made and installed. Feel free to build them as you wish with regard to wire length, routing, etc. My plan is to use bullet connectors instead of the Posi-Taps but that may change.
Here are the connectors, terminals, and seals that you will need;

Female connector: PN 1928403110 (qty. 1)
Terminal: PN 929939-3 (qty. 3)
Seal: PN 1928300599 (qty. 3)
