Can the forum's own resident Father Jack, Feck Off :D

Is that at maximum output and is that when you start the car up?

If anyone is running suitable monitoring equipment just want to know what your alternator is putting out and peaking at?

It's £20 if you just want to stand and watch :D

Do we have to let the riff raff in :D

easy way to find out, just do the carbon canister removal!

Sounds like FP test will be the best start to finding the source of your problems then Maz?

I am just trying to work out how excessive pressure in the fuel tank would stop the engine, the only way I can see is the fuel cannot return via the fpr and then it floods the engine?

Have never heard of fuel cap going wrong but hey it is the cheapest and easiest option so give it a go! One thing to consider is the warlbro's did have a reputation for going faulty, also not calling you workmanship into judgement but if the retaiining straps for the pump and or hose has come loose this could account for the excessive tank pressure?

James after the success of my R8 post what about making one in LEDs:rofl::rofl::rofl:

I thought the going rate for used oem pumps was about £40?

There isn't a pressure release valve in the filler cap, it is a vacuum release, you said the car never ran as well with the warlbro, why persevere with it when a used oem one is pennies? The car can very well with the fuel pressure being out of sync, also you can run it on the fly so you can see what is happening with the fuel pressure as you drive.

My first port of call would be to replace the warlbro with a oem one complete on cradle, and if the same thing happens look at wiring/fuel system. Have you done a fuel pressure check?

I see from your previous posts that you had issues with the orginal fuel pump, do you think it may have been an issue with wiring/fuel system and putting in a warlbro has just highlighted the problem again?

So why did you change to a warlbro, as they can go faulty?

That is what I would expect if everything was normal.

Yes but how much, just a few drips could be expected? Did you plumb in your warlbro in exactly the same way as the original pump?

Andy, I think there may be another way of looking at it? Vacuum in a petrol is potentially detirmental in terms that it can collapse the tank and impede fuel flow to the engine, so that is maybe why there is a vacuum relief valve in the cap? Also it is a vacuum relief valve, means it is getting rid of vacuum or a certain level of vacuum, if it was a pressure relief valve then we could presume the tank being pressurised was a bad thing?

No worries Dave, I think in the end I found that Think Automotive would do a slightly lower price delivered, I was simply going to stick up the fittings and length and get people to ring them direct and order from them?
