Stuck fuel pump

Hi,

On alternative fuels forum, due to petrol not working I've been informed that it could be a stuck fuel pump that is not allowing the petrol to flow to the carb.

Is this easy to check? Would like to check this out and eliminate it first before Ito through the LPG electrics.

Regards
Chris

Re: T25 headlights advice

Hi, Thanks for the threads guys. To be honest I feel that it failed its mot due to the lights not being able to be aligned properly. If this is the case then I feel I need new mounting brackets. Possibly nothing wrong with the lights themselves. Can you buy the brackets separately? If not where can ...

Coolant tank - Full?

Re: How to remove screws/bolts

Hi,
Thanks for all the replies. Will get the drill out.

They are more of an eye sore than anything else, just want to get rid of them.

Re: How to remove screws/bolts

Hi,
No access to other side to see but I beleive they could be rivets.

Regarding the mirrors, unfortunately they are damaged, another reason for removing but would have been glad to give you them for free if they were in good nick. Thks for your response anyway

Re: Bleeding the system

Hi Steve,
Thanks. The brick yard section assumes that the system is already empty and does not state how to drain the system.

Yes, also noticed that the T25 is not mentioned in Blauparts

I'll keep looking

Cheers
