    Mark you are literally saving me here

    So 12v+ at idle? And measured by putting volt metre across terminals on the pump?

    (oh and there a pm for you)

    Thats right mate, with engine running should see 12v+.

    Put earth lead of multimeter to bat neg/earth on chassis and pos lead on the 12v wire to pump
