just speaking from my experience I've replaced the complete pump in the past (during head and chain change) then just the mid section (more than once) to keep it alive all in all not worth it!

doesn't change the fact that it was still that item that went tits up and caused that fault does it?? the FIP pumps come up on eBay from time to time I've picked a few up for pennies but now they seem to be commanding much more so the days of "it's knackered again, swap it out" are long...

same fault on mine, each time replaced the mid section of the FIP and went away

difficult starting - it drained the battery Poss lack of compression horrible clattering - sounds like Ducati dry clutch see above no power low down but pulled once revs climbed and again overheated exhaust gas leaking into cooling I took the coolant reservoir cap off and had a...

just a quick read through this leads me to think that the FIP has or is giving up quickest fix is to replace the middle section with a second hand working one, the other solution is to replace the pump with a new one. Ask your self how much is the car worth though!

ever worked for Haynes? :D:D

not worried really, stripping without breaking something is the hardest part. the rebuild should be simple enough once everything is cleaned up

with the top removed you have access to the coil, using a deep 7mm socket to remove the studs will release everything remove the springs line up the shaft and you will be able to remove the coil

Once you have unpicked the eleccy parts you will be able to remove the black connector

Remove the middle section, making working on it much easier Now undo all the red screw, and the Blue ones (they are left hand thread) you will also need to unpick the electrical connectors (purple) I used heat and a flat head screwdriver bend back the 2 wires highlighted in green

firstly I must say sorry for the colour of the internals of this pump, this has been run on Bio, SVO and Black diesel and is covered in gumming, no doubt the reason this pump died, however it did manage 150k miles so it's not all doom and gloom First you need to tackle the Bosch security...

I've a spare FIP I can pick up tomorrow to strip for parts, and I'll have a dig around on here for the thread :-)

can you buy just this part of the FIP??

will replace and move onto the next thing, the FIP :-(

following up from this, today I removed the in tank pump and set up a bench test, and seemed to run fine. This is not really what I wanted as I suspected the pump was causing the idle issue.

Have the same issue, if you hold the RPM at 1000 while using the left foot on the brake pedal it's fine soon as you let off the gas pedal idle bounces (like a petrol misfire) then cuts out :-/ I'm not using my RR at the min but I'm guessing it's the in tank pump causing my issue as no...

Ah beat me to it! lol

never like re-using the spring clips they are never as tight second time round

still working fine on mine, they are cut a little long so may need a trim if you can't get it in, better than being too short I guess?

2 seals are: Aircon green O'rings 9mm and 11mm then follow ........http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f10/air-con-rad-change-227085-2.html
