im thinking fuel pump at most but should it give some notice of going not just all of a suddened???

any1 any info????????

First thing to do is to get a fault code read, anything else is pure speculation.

[Crasher]

They have a painful habit of jumping just the pump timing a few days after the belt has been done. I have seen this happen a few times for no apparent reason. All that has to be done is the engine pinned and lock plated back up and the timing reset.

[teddy]

its not showing any fault codes!!!
i was thinking it could only be something to do with pump r timing cause it just happened all of a suddened cheers lads ill let yas know how we got on

[Crasher]

I would expect you to find the pump timing is one tooth out.

[teddy]

well yous were right about the timing!!
but it was out by 3 teeth
cheers for the help lads

[Crasher]

Was it a Bosch belt?

[teddy]
