Have noticed some fuel leaking on the floor at the rear of the disco, drivers side. Looking underneath its coming from the tank, must be at the top as it doesnt empty out overnight. Anything common? sender unit im thinking ...

Get yersel a four metre length of fuel pipe, 8 mm and bypass the sedimentor, though check the tank unions first,
Done it and it worked, though I replaced a perfectly OK lift pump a forehand, little hint, type in your problem before posting you will get a list of associated postings search:

Thanks for the search advice, but hey, i did but nothing came up

I guess the tank needs to be dropped, its full at the mo lol so will need to wait for it to run out / leak out

Which can be a bit of a sod to access in itself,carpets and soundproofing foam to lift etc, if your not too bothered about looks the quickest way is to take a Stanley knife and cut an access panel to the access panel
