Default Electric Fuel Pressure Gauge Help...

I have a 1991 and installed an Auto Meter electric fuel pressure gauge. I ran the red power wire from the memory control module to the positive power block next to the battery. The memory control module is mounted near the gas pedal. It works fine, but if I don't pull the in-line fuse it will drain my battery.

I need to find a 12v source that will cut out when the ignition is not on. I was hoping there might be a 12v source near where I already wired which is from the gas pedal area, through the firewall and next to the battery.

Anyone have any simple suggestions?

Thanks,

KW

You should be able to go the the ignition switch at the base of the steering column for 12V switched power. Either the orange wire on C1 or the Pink wire on C2 is 12V with ign sw in run.

Need help on that C1 and C2 thing? Do I need to pull anything apart to access these wires? Just lay on my back and look for these guys? Will they be in a bundle or anything specific to look for? I hate electrical...
