Sure.. but why would you want to?

In fact in reality they already run off of your ignition switch.

Your fuel pumps get power through the ignition switch and the inertial safety switch. IMO to try to bypass either, or both of those switches is dangerous. I'll have no part in it.

Because I'm very very poor I pay 900 a month for a 1 bed room apartment i make 950 after taxes. I have to hustle money just to get by.

Florida is expensive.

I'm rewiring my truck with extra wiring harnesses I got it to start and work all my lights. I had to start it on start up fluid because I didn't know how i wanted to wire my fuel pumps!
