Will ask the mechanic to check the battery.

I havnt driven it in 3 weeks but from what I remember it was louder than my old Vx SS. No dodgy noises just priming. Never driven another ford ute so nothing to compare the noise to.

The mechanic already has the tray off and old pump assembly out ready to put the new pump in. but the car yard turns out only sent the new pump yesterday so won't be picking it up till next weekend now :/

It will be going straight to a tuner when it gets up here for a tune and look over. Just needs to make the 300km journey without cutting out lol

My mates Mazda 6 fuel pump would cut out intermittently, he said first time he called the RAA the mechanic gave the tank a whack and sure enough it fixed it for a while. Its failed completely now cos he has no common sense.

Good luck!

All fixed guys. Turns out was a few things. Dirty throttle body, blocked fuel pump, and a split in the fuel pump Hose right after the pump. So half of the fuel was going straight back into the tank.

Holy sh*t it is fast now it is getting fuel. Love it.

Also anyone no how many of these were made in vibe?
