I replaced my fuel pump around 3 months ago, the intake jobbie (what a task!) and it has already stopped working. I run Duel Fuel 90% of the time running on LPG, but the car requires the fuel pump for initial starting and for when I like to run a tank through the engine. Now to start the car I have to disconnect the vac hose off the throttle body, squirt in some fuel and then presto it starts. Unless the car is warm, then it will start on LPG everytime. But from a cold start up, LPG just doesnt start it.
As you can imagine, this is a pain in the ar*e!! Anyone else have wiring issues with fuel pumps? Its not the fuse or connections at the fuse box, that was the first thing I checked.
Any help is always appriciated.

First I'd check that the pump is actually getting power....or try running a hot lead to it and see if it runs.

It can happen, I went through 4 fuel pumps in 12 months. Original died after many years. A mate got me a trade special which worked for 1 day. Its trade special warranty replacement lasted 1 year and then I bought a brand name quality pump which is still running 5 years later.
