that seems to have sorted the problem. It's run absolutely fine since
we got it back so I'm guessing there must have been some dirty
contacts somewhere and this must have stopped the fuel pump working at
times. I must admit that when it wouldn't start there wasn't a strong
smell of fuel which I would have expected.


Beware speaking too soon! The problem is much reduced but at speed
(70mph or thereabouts) on a motorway, as I lift off the accelerator,
the engine stutters a few times. I think it must be something to do
with the fuel pump or injectors but I've no idea how to fix it. I
guess I need to find out more about how the fuel injection system
works and if there are any sensors that might be causing the problem.
Ah well, back to the drawing board...


Try the relays I suggested earlier.
