I have a 1986 Southwind RV 30ft, with 454 engine, everywhere I looked online I’ve seen where there relay is but, I’m not sure where it is located on my RV,

Asked by 1900 Jul 19, 2018 at 03:06 PM about the Chevrolet C/K 1500

Question type: General

I’ve changed fuel filter, fuel pump, electric fuel pump, dropped n checked
sending unit and cleaned fuel tank, no fuel getting to carburetor. It’ll start if I
put starting fluid, then shut off. The only thing I can think of is the fuel relay,
either I’m not seeing something familiar or it’s in front of my eyes. Please let
me know if anyone can help me because I’m not sure where it is. Thank you

When you changed the fuel pump did you make sure that it was pumping before you hooked up the fuel lines? Some after market fuel pumps are wired a little different so as to avoid a patent issue. They will tell you in the instructions though which wires to switch. Make sure your ground is good too. As far as the location of the relay, all I could find shows it ,( if equipped ) , located on or near the floor panel.
