2004 Tsport fuel pump issues

[LewiTsport]

Hi all new to the club, have owned my facelift for 3 and a bit years. Been off the road for a year before taken off the road the RAC guy said the fuel pump was struggling and needed replacing. After a couple hours sat it would go for about 30ish miles fine. Any help much appreciated 👍

Hi,

If thats the problem, then replacing the whole fuel pump assembly probably worthwhile after  16 years.

However , it could Also be a partially blocked filter  due to a   dirty / rusty fuel tank so you need to ensure thats all ok first.

Have read  that  on earlier models  the fuel filler pipe to tank, being metal , could also  corrode and even leak.

Access the the fuel pump assembly under the rear seat on the standard models, would think the TS is the same ..
