exactly where mine is mate

 

[jim s3]

hello mate hows the car running with the new turbo any better?

right then its going there then got another problem my car wouldnt start today or yesterday when i turn the key i cant hear the pump prime i also took the fuel lines of in the engine bay and turned the car over and got no fuel out...
so is it the fuel pump relay or the fuel pump??
how do you check the relay??

 

[ibizacupra]

relay swap it out and feel if it clicks or not.. presume you have checked all fuses yea?

 

[jim s3]

took the relay out and bridged it and the fuel pump started running so fuel pump is ok changed the relay and it still doesnt start, pump dont prime still checked the fuses and they are all okl. what else could it be???

 

[IbizaAlex]

Do you get any other fault codes like n75, injectors? Have you removed any earths recently?

 

[UncleFester]

Is your immobiliser cutting in and disabling the fuel pump relay? On the basis it's not being asked to switch by the ECU?

 

[jim s3]

no fault codes whatsoever think it might be the battery not having enough voltage to run the pump but will turn the car over fine i will see as the battery is charging now...

 

[jim s3]

has anyone got any pictures of how the walbro or 044 are mounted and fittings are needed to attach them to original pipe work???
cheers

 

[jim s3]
