(which only took about four months!) and the fuel pump doesn't appear to be pumping. I have put the service wire in etc and have 12 volts at the last connector under the centre console. I just wondered if there is any way of freeing off the pump with air via the discharge and return line or something? I also thought maybe if the pump is totally gone, would it not have blown the fuse? I know the car was jacked up at the back end for a while to do the arches. Thanks. try running a direct feed to the pump from the live in the dash, say radio or fag lighter or just off the battery. a heavy bash with a hammer to the tank can sometimes free them up. i am not sure of the pump action so cant say if a reverse blow would help. you must remember the pump only pumps when the engine cranks it may just be a bad connection at the ecu or relay. take the connector apart thats in the boot and clean it up with a bit of contact cleaner ,do the same with the ecu plugs. good luck . I have a spare tank and pump that I have checked, so it looks like I'll be lying under the car wrestling with the tank over xmas then! it helps if you can have 2 people and something the right height to rest the tank on. good luck.
