right ive got a problem with my fuel pump. .well i think lol

right ive had problems with my car running rubbish lately. .some of you may of read my other thread!
anyway it started playing up again so i started to have a look over it then whilst revving it slightly it cut out. .i tried ticking it over again but no joy!
sounded like it was getting no fuel. .so i took the fuel pipes off in the engine bay and tried turning it over and nothing coming through!

i then tried taking the pipes off the fuel pump to see if anything happened and nothing coming through!
anyway got fed up and just locked the car up etc lol then got home from work today and tried it and it worked! but only for lik a min then the pump stopped working again and it wont start again now!

basically do you reckon its the pump thats gone? ive been told about a relay?

anyway where can i find this? any help would be much appreciated!

well try the relay first mate, its a cheap thing to replace :y:

also check connections on the pump too, make sure there all plugged in properly

tbh id just get a new one mate, it may work but could be sticking at times causing the pump to intermit on and off

wont be a main dealer part only mate, can get them anywhere if you know what your looking for but tbh there cheap enough from the main dealer anyway, might be an idea to try someone elses first to see if it is that though :y:
