Thanks,

Having the fuel pump constantly running wont burn it out? or are they constant anyway?

The fuel pump runs as long as your engine is running. How else would the engine get fuel?? It stops when your engine stops.

Thanks for clearing that up, i thought that possibly once the fuel rails have fuel the ecu switches on the pump as required...

Punchn, how did you end up going with this problem? Always good to see the result.
