In tank fuel pump / filter

Can you hear it tryin when you switch the ign on ?

wot you could have is this.......
**** in tank gets picked up and blocks pickup pipe, injun stops.
after a while it falls orf and yer injun will start only to pick up the crap again and blocking the pickup. and so the cycle goes on. course it might be summin else aswell

Sales manager here at work had similar problem during the hotspell last July. Ended up having it in the stealership for 3 days while it was rewired under warranty.

Took great delight dropping him of at Guy Salmon in my V8 on the hottest day of the year with no aircon
