Yeah that's how I had it the first time and that's when it melted the power wire, Since then I've got it from the battery now and its melted the earth now.

That’s the photo when I first burnt the power side.

Can anyone shed some light on another way to power the pump from the relay without the bulkheads? Are people just taking the power and ground wires out of the standard plug then putting the new power/ground into that same plug?

maybe you need a better quality fuel through pot connection block. they just look like stainless studs.

They are made exactly for what I'm doing, all others I've looked at are pretty much exactly the same. Is there another way to feed the pump direct power without having to put bulkheads?

Thanks for that that's looks like a better option, Do you think that alone could solve the issue of it melting? should I be wiring it up any different than I am currently?

Something is wrong to draw excess current. You need to determine why.

 

All you need is + feed from battery to relay (fused.). Relay triggered from factory fuel pump +.  All earths ground at the chassis near tank. Easy. 

 

Is the rubber seal compressing after install allowing the connection to loosen??

The best connections use double nut.
