Hi..

Ok....Just bought my first rs and infact ford a 1985 escort rs turbo series one.. with a slight problem...

The car turns over and is just about to start but then....doesnt...and this continues...just tries and tries

the guy i bought it off reckons its the fuel pump however just want a second opinion and since no mechanics are available as its the weekend a little advice please.

what i do know is that the battery is ok.. (have tried with jump leads)
the starter motor is ok because it turns over
the earth is secure...

some one did tell me to check weather i can hear a slight noise from under the car of the fuel pump... so put the ignition on and i thought i heard the noise but tried it again and nothing....????

anyways will hopefully be posting some pics of the car tomorrow before and after a good clean...

all help really appreciated.. many thanks
