I think the wires you are on about are the feeds to the coil are they clean. ? check the feed woth a test light, but go for the pump first.
yeah dude the wires are clean,but it had two new coils not so long back so im wondering if we disturbed summat

Sounds more like a loose connection, just do the wiggle test with the engine running, better to sort now than pray when in the outside lane of the M25 when you remember what you forgot to look at!!

my fuel pump wiring got checked last year and was deemed to be ok,we wiggled it and rocked the pump and all sorts and it wouldnt go,its only when we wiggled the wires on the coil that it went,whats getting me is that it hasnt played up for weeks,then just does it out the blue yesterday
