is the fuel pump definately working when it should

 

no im not sure just been over and had a look at that flap your on about it has a pool of water at the bottom of it, from the rain coming through the vents like 1cm deep,i have taken the pipe of the fuel filter and turned the key fuel is coming out

 

GET THE WATER OUT

 

this is a nightmare got the water out but now the battery is flat do you think this wa the problem

 

i also just want to say thank you for helping me with this

 

okay i am sorry for this yeah just cleaned all metering unit inside everytime i press the flat down petrol goes into the bottom of the flap and forms a pool

 

ahhhhhh, well done

theres one problem then new metering head required, or a service kit.

Very common problem that

 

cool know your stuff yeah so if i get a new 1 do you think she will fire up??

 

well you're losing fuel pressure because of that so its more than likely why it wont fire, the injectors are pressure operated.

Either way, it shoudn't be like that.

I expect that was fuel in the bottom though and not water like you thought

 

cool thanks there is sum1 up here that breaks rs turbos so gonna take a nip through tonight and see if he has a metering unit will let u know if i get it runing

 

 

okay went 2 see that guy the day and he dosnt have 1 is there any way i can fix my unit?(or is it 2 hard)if not then do you know where i can buy a second hand 1

 

you can fix them yea, the seals inside go.

Apparently Stu @ MSD off here sells them, speak to him hes a good bloke

 

okay cool will do thanks for that do you think it will be ok for me to do yeah(a novice)

 

i've not done it myself but from what i've seen its pretty easy.

I think its an O ring inside that perishes, should be easy enough.

Stu will be able to tell you more specifically tho, give him a call and tell him i pointed you in his direction
