Hi,Turning ignition on/off does nothing. Fuel pump does not run until engine is cranking. I'd suggest you bridge the fuel pump relay and see if the pump runs - that will also "prime" the system. Then try a different relay, front fog light relay for example.Try to check if pump is running when engine is cranking.P.S. you may have just flooded it, try starting with 1/2 throttle before any of the above.....
let us know
Best Regards,Paul L

  hi all,as always hope you can assist. yes i am daft for dicing with such a scenario knowing the intermittent characteristics of my fuel gauge but i thought i would chance it last night and the inevitable happened - ran out of fuel! so i topped up with 1 gallon (regular jerry can capacity) and still no joy. however i realised this morning i did not prime the fuel pump so i will give that a go later today, so ignition on - leave for 5 seconds, ignition off - repeat 4 or 5 times.if this does not work is there anything else i could check e.g. pump fuse - perhaps during fuel starvation overheated? the battery is fine and the car cranks up but does not want to start...any suggestionsgreatly welcomed!
thanks again, abid
