try the fuel pipes round the otherway first. I always check with the valve at the front if I am getting fuel.

i have not got a fuel pump relay...do u have to have one as atm my pump is just set up live from the ignition ???

[lukehamlyn]

yer im getting fuel out the valve....

you need a fuel pump relay, until you have one it wont start buddy, fuel pump relay controls more than just the pump :)

cheers mate :)

i have a relay on the loom and its black with 3 wirers cut off it and my fuel pump has 3 wires....is that the relay i put the pump to ????

[comptoncj]

The fuel pump relay has about 7 wires to it it the fuel pump (blue and red) is on it and also a switched and perminant live and some wires for the ecu etc

[mowgli]

where are you taking the positive for the fuel pump from??? it might be a switched ign live & not a permanent ign live, and thus, every time you turn it over, it could be turning the pump off

[lukehamlyn]

ok thanks for your help ill have a look and yer there are some wires going from the relay to the ecu

bottom of the pic (balck plug with red/blue wires) if your loom is the same as mine you'll need to cut the single red/blue wire from the small black plug in the middle of two others
Is it a late or early type xe?

[lukehamlyn]

its a late one(coil pack) and yer i got that relay :) cheers bud
