Does the connector on the main harness have 2 or 3 wires?
My FSM show 3 wires. Pump, sender and ground. Looks like the ground is missing. Perhaps it grounds through metal to metal contact?

I may be wrong but I believe the former setup has a hang down spade from the inside of the sending unit plate soo it does in fact ground to the tank itself
