In a block 50 training textbook i saw a picture from the Fuel pumps advisory light panel . (The one below Lox Converter / OBOGS )

There was no explanation of the layout but there were eight lights.
My guess: two extra for Conformal Fuel Tanks ?
Please guys; some advise on advisory lights.

The CFT test jet we had at Eglin only had the six lights, and all the block 50's we had only had six lights...of course, none of them (50's) were CFT capable, so it may be a new block 50 thing too.

We had 50's and they had 6 lights as well. I worked one with CFT's too. Six lights on the panel. Maybe its for the new piddle pack pumps! Maybe its a jet by jet case.

8 lights are used for pumps 1-5, FFP, Right CFT and Left CFT.

Block 52's had six as well. 5 for the pumps (2 xfer pumps and 3 boost pumps) and 1 for the FFP. I wolud be interested in seeing a pic of the block 60 panel that has 8 lights if anyone has one or can take one. I've never seen a -16 fitted with CFT's up close, hopefully that will change soon!
