Default fuel pump circuit breaker

guys,
had a quick question....now i bought this painless fuel pump realy kit and soldered everything, sleeved everythign too! now i made sure i had fuel in the tank and attemepd a test and pump does prime for 2 seconds! so thats good news!

now i had a doubt about the circuit breaker it had one red short leg and the other one was normal alumiunized long leg....the circuit breaker was fit between the battery + to the pump and i fit the short leg to the + and the long leg to the pump! does this sound correct? well it made me think of the leg lenth it should be fit like an LED/Diode (cathode/anode), so does it matter which direction is fit?

longer leads to a device usually signifies the lower voltage potential side.

no you did it right. if you follow the direction of the current from high voltage to lower voltage (or ground) the lead order will be short then long.
