yeah ill try this too! should have just done that a few times to see if there was derv in the tank really!

what time will you be making a start tomorrow?

I'll be starting as soon as I'm up and ready! So whatever time you can make it here will be good to help!

At this rate though I'm just gonna spend all day working on the car then everyone is gonna turn up for BBQ!!!

Hope you get this sorted out bud.

If it turns out to be your pumps gone, you can have my old one as I have an uprated pump to fit to mine. Just won't be available tomorrow.

Monday after work maybe? Just let me know if you pin it down to that.

do these have the main relay like the atr??...may be daft but mine went on my accord type r h22......the main relay(fuel pump pin) burnt itself out,had exactly same problem......cud b pissing in the wind if the ludes dont have 1 but worth a shout i guess......

nah they do suffer the same problem mate! will be investigating the main relay tomorrow although i can hear the fuel pump priming so i suspect it may not be the problem

cheers
