    Did you follow the handbook procedure for running out of fuel? That will eliminate that.

    I've had a fuel pump relay fail, under the drivers seat. Doesn't go far then.

    What mileage is on the car? Is it due for pump failure?

    Regards

    Spoke to Andrew today Piddler, Sounds like he has to buy a fuel pump.
