Good luck using that fuel pump setup. If I knew what you are looking for, I have mine out now and could look at it.

I have my tank out now, are you asking which of the green wires is + or-? I dont think they have polarity, it is just a resistance from the sender.

The two middle wires go to the fuel sender.

Just a resistor, no polarity. Plug it can't go wrong.
