HELP FUEL PROBLEM

Having picked my car up on Saturday afternoon, where they changed the oil and fuel filter. I've driven the car for a couple of hours and she broke down. Shuddered to a stop. There's over half a tank of fuel in the car, The car wont start and sounds lumpy when it tries to. It just seems co-incidental that Hunters changed the fuel filter and now I have a fuel problem. Does any body have any advice on how to fault find and fix this., I did call Hunters, who just recommended I get it recovered to them so that they can look at it. I plugged the gap IID tool in, and there were many fuel rail system errors and sensor high temperatures. I cleared all the faults and even though the car wont start the faults don't reappear. Dave

something might have been dislodged when they did the oil change...check under the bonnet for loose connections Dave, the battery ones in particular... ... - .- -.

The fuel metering valve acts as a fuel cut_off if 12v supply missing. Fuse??

Air in the fuel line? Maybe the fuel filter isn't sealing properly. ______________________________

Got the car transported to Hunters LR this afternoon. I'll keep you posted.

I did talk to a friend (ex car mechanic) of mine who guessed that the car only had half a tank of fuel, he said the transfer pump in the tank may have gone as the shape of the tank is saddle shaped, i didn't think it was, but we'll see Dave

Lift pump failure is a possibility. ______________________________

Got a call today, they say the low-pressure fuel pump had packed up, looking at the manual I guess that means the secondary fuel pump, that's next to the fuel filter, the cost to fix is £400. I've told them to look after the car as I'll be abroad for the next few months Dave
