    Default VN fuel pump!!!!

    Hey a while ago my vn wouldnt start wen switched off. It only used to happen every now and then and would start up again anywhere between two minutes later to a couple of hours later. As it started happening i had the fuel pump replaced. However now the car is stalling whilst driving and not starting
    more often. When it is stalled or not starting i cannot hear the fuel pump prime as opposed to when i can hear it priming when it is normal. I have dual fuel so usually when it stalls i just spray aerostart down the air intake and run it on gas and it goes fine. I thought it may be the relay however i pulled it out when the car was running and it didnt stall soo i ruled it out. So basically i figure it must be the electrics or fuel injector?? Can anyone help me please???

    did u get a brand new furl pump, mayb change the fuel filter and clean the fuel tank...also the vn might like running on gas rather than petrol.

    mayb when startin it up use petrol first then change it to gas...

    Hopefully not fuel pump because I bought it from the Holden Dealer. I also got new filter put on and I had the tank flushed out...

    Dual fuel uses petrol to get the engine running for a split second hence the need for aerostart.
