    URGENT: LCR Broken Down!! towed home ...

    Right just ran out to the car and I used to remember there being a whirrr noise when the ignition was turned on so the dash lite up, its not doing this now!! would this indicate the pump isn't working? What fuse do I check for the fuel pump?

    URGENT: LCR Broken Down!! towed home ...

    Will have a look first thing, the car has just under 3/4 of a tank in it, never let it go below half way. To be honest ive not checked to see if the pump makes the whir noise before it starts ... will have a check later.
