just been taking to someone, and they say there fuel pump comes on when they turn the ignition on, but mine only turns on once cranking, so i wondering if this is my starting problem, were its turn over for 3-4 secs then starts
any way could some one tell me what is ment to be going on, on ignition or cranking
The fuel pump should only engage when its receiving a signal from the TDC sensor... i.e, when cranking/running.
ah well this person reckons he turns the key and the pump comes on, and will then cut off unless switched on,
see bottom of page 2

What are you scratching your head for? Tim's answered your question.
becasue im wondering why hes does that, crazy....
plus i was expecting him to reply. but maybe not
Are we to expect this thread turning into another argumentitve slanging match, where, once again, you don't take in any advice given on here & think that everyone is talking bollox?
Pump does not run, only when cranking. There is no buzz at the start unlike an EFI car.
Yeah.
Do I look chinese?
lol whats this world comming to, i didnt say a sodding word about not beliving him i was asking him, he said he couldnt see it so i posted the convo, no reply so i put that,
in no shape or form did it imply i didnt belive him nor take his advice,
get a life and stop picking for a argument
and to set facts straight the advice was to remove the dv which im sorry but i dont want to, which for some stragne reason started a slagging macth agaisnt me becasue i dont want to remove it..
any way end of i aint repeating last night
hang on a minute im wondering if it the reserve fuel tank pump hes hearing. makes a buzzing noise when ignition is turned live and quite common for people to let the tank run low my mate says
oh and the starting problem could be something to do with the fuel evapourating in the carb hence the poor starting hence renault fitted the perc fan.my mate says
Touché!
Bitchen guys lol, the poor bloke was only asking a question just had 2 different people saying 2 different things....
Chillax people - freindly forum
I've been here long enough to appreciate that it is a friendly forum, thanks
I just had visions of this thread turning into a slanging match, a la the dump valve thread, hence my rhetorical question

I tell ya what is funny is www.barryboys.com fin brill site, check out shed of the month and look for the 6r4 metro.... But there is some real barry boys on there...
And before i get stabbed at NO I'm not a member..
I thought the fuel pump was meant to prime when ignition is switched on before cranking?
Seems like a genuine question, ease up guys, to people who dont know you long term members better it seems like your baiting him.
Meh.
My conscience is clear.
For once.
never mind joke over, haha funny....
right
i dont know thus why i was asking, didnt ask to be flame grilled
richie
i have infact had the carb top off with plently of fuel in there, stuck the top back on and it still takes ages to fire, im starting to think the acel pump thingy on the side of the carb is knackered
is this diaphrame avalible from cgb etc?
or am i looking at a whole carb kit?
Poor starting (especially when warm) could be lack of or not working anti perc fan, carb issue ( yes the acc pump arm sticking which is common) Carb jetting/adjustment, Air leak, ignition issues, (incorrect plugs, distributor problems/worn dampness etc). If it starts sometimes and not others ie intermittant, it could be fuel pump relay, ecu or relay, tdc sensor fault. The lack of turning over will be the starter motor. Bin it and get new as its not worth the hassle to repair. Engine related it may be incorrect valve adjutment.
