Hi All,

Has anyone got or could tell me the best place to get a fuel pump relay? Seem to be out of stock unfortunately?
Really need to get one asap.

Thanks! :)

You can make one using a normal relay, a relay base, some wire and some crimp spade connectors.

This one - can't say I have personal experience. I know Dan 6457 did though: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/360380583225

You could always do the link as a temporary measure:

You can replace the 555 timer chip on your original one or get the one from euro car parts or buy one direct from Ed/ Houston.

This as assuming that it is the fuel pump relay that is at fault.

The earth side of the pump goes via the inertia switch so make sure this is in place and the plunger is in the down position.
