Did the '86 tank come out of a carbed Jeep? That would explain the wiring differences. No in-tank fuel pump. I'm just guessing here. Two wires are for fuel gauge signal and ground. Three wires are for fuel gauge signal, fuel pump power, and ground. JMO

ol"blue looks like your right on, i feel dumb after posting. Carbed to FI. One FP from the carbed tank but the FI tank had an in tank pump either the low or high presure pump.
Anyhow I'm going to see if they can switch over (i.e. same sized holes)
Thanks for posting all.
