Pretty sure the 96 had a different fuel pump and it was only for that year. I am sure someone who knows for sure will chime in to verify.

The following info is from this link, read post #19 and #21 http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthrea...1107991&page=2
Wiring:
1996:
1: Dark Green/Red = Fuel Pump Relay Output(+12V)
2: Black/Light Blue = Sensor Ground
3: Dark Blue = Fuel Level Sensor Signal
4: ----------
5: Dark Blue/White = Low Fuel Sense
6: Black = Ground
1997+:
1: Dark Green/White = Fuel Pump Relay Output
2: ---------
3: Dark Blue/Light Green = Fuel Level Sensor
4: Brown/Yellow = Sensor Ground
5: ---------
6: Black = Ground
