Default Few problems with my RST - only owned it for 2 days

Hi,

I have just bought a 88 spec series 2 RST. Completely standard apart from some crappy chrome bits under the engine bay.

1st off, It seams to run really hot. It has a chrome header tank (which i hate) and it always has loads of pressure in. Would that cause it? However the heaters are never very hot. I was sat in traffic for 5 mins and it went straight to red

2nd it takes ages to start. It splutters then will eventually come into life after a few turns and feathering of the throttle.

Also the fuel pump packed up today (2 days of ownership ) it was making a really loud buzzing noise and no doesnt seam to work. Does anyone know of any good places to buy the fuel pumps from.

Im a real n00b with the CVH engines.

Thanks for your help
Jack
