Fuel pump can work in two ways,it will pressurise system when ignition is on and when engine runs.
It will be easier to use the loom in the way it was meant to be used in the car and dont use the bits like leccy windows etc,just make sure they are insulated properly.
The diagnostic socket comes in handy for problems.
