So you can't hear the pump priming? Give the tank underneath with a rubber mallet while trying to start it. (need 2 people)

This can jolt the pump enough to get it spinning, sure sign it's dying.

Still think it could be a relay though...

Can't hear anything from the pump.

Hitting the tank was the first thing we tried when I saw no fuel coming from the filter when being cranked, still no dice

Ran the multi over the below - getting good power ( 12v+ ) through the fuse, relay and in to the wires running in to the tank.

Any EFI car will prime the pump for a few seconds when the key is flicked to reds.

If there's power at the pump but no fuel coming out anywhere, your pumps dead.

Mark :)

Thanks for all the help and suggestions on this guys!!

Picked up a Walbro gss342 today, followed the diy guide below to swap the pumps over - she kicked over instantly!

    • Based off what you’ve said here, I think I’ve figured out a good bit of what I’ve done wrong -  So on the line going from the PCV valve to carbon canister, there’s a T joint that is pretty much right next to that lower port - I hadn’t noticed that the hose in the diagram was curved to attach onto the carb, so I was putting that line for the lower port onto the PCV line / carbon canister line instead. I’m going to have a flick through the manual again tomorrow and should hopefully find a diagram that’ll show me where that T joint should be connected to. Timing also 100% needs to be sorted out as well, should be able to tackle that tomorrow as well. Definitely feel like I should be on the right track now though. 
    • The screw is for idle (pilot circuit) mixture adjustment. Else, I'm confused ~ the diagram shows 2 carby ports, and the intake manifold port, but you're suggesting the "2nd port on the back of the carb that isn’t mentioned in the diagrams" ...yet, both carby ports are shown...que?... ...in any event, that port should be connected, but if not (like it is now), it's unlikely to cause a backfire out the carby (it would introduce false air and give you a fast/lean idle) ...sounds more like timing issues/spark plug wire routing responsible for the backfiring.    
    • That's fair, I can see both points. I get enthusiastic when I see the FS section has a new post and want to see what interesting thing someone is selling. Then I get deflated it's a bump of a 10 year old post. Ha ha
    • Couple of litres of moonshine from his southern cousins would do it...
    • Brakes definitely won't make him faster. They only slow you down. 😛
