Hi guys and gals.
Just looking for any help on my intermittent problem.
The fuel pump operates when the engine is cold. The car then runs fine until i switch off.
If the engine is warm i can't get it started again until i leave the motor to cool down again. While hot the pump does not prime, but i do get a 12V feed from the relay when cranking and on initial ignition on. So the relay appears to e ok.
Then the same thing happens.
I assume the pump is ok because i've never heard of a fuel pump intermittently faulty due to heat...??!!
So, next question is about the oil pressure switch which i read is linked in with the priming circuit.
How do i test it?
My Max Ellery manual is absolutely useless and will be going in the bin very soon.
Another question which may or may not be related is this
What is this? What does it do? And should i be getting 12V between the body and the part in the middle with ignition on. Also while ignition on i can hear a high pitch noise from it.
Thanks in advance, this problem is bugging the hell out of me.
