Default my car runs for 3 seconds then cuts out...........

i have an s1 erst
when i turn the ignition key the fuel pump primes, then when i start the car it starts first time, runs for about 3 seconds then cuts out.
the fuel pump isn't running so im guessing its the fuel pump relay..... but why?
the only thing that is any different from a normal erst is that rather than the wire at pin 1 on the relay going to the tacho, it goes straight to the green wire on the coil, could this be the problem, or are these relays prone to breaking???
please please help, i need my baby running.....
