A friend of mine has an S reg 2.1td.
About 2 weeks back his aux belt broke, caught up in the cam belt (somehow i
dont know) damaged the cam belt and progressed to damage a few valves.

I've subscribed to this newsgroup and within 5 minutes found that this
doesn't seem to be rare.

I'm more electrically minded although autoelectrics is certainly not my
strong point but we seem to have come across a problem.
Everything engine wise has been repaired and put back together, Timing set
etc.
For whatever reason the fuel pump seems to be doing nothing. When you turn
the engine over you get a bit of a dribble then nothing else.
There should be a fuel cut off switch (reset device) under the bonnet but i
can only find a socket, maybe the switch should go here.

key points.

Battery has been off for 10 days, although it is fully charged.
impedance between necessary pins on multipin connector check out ok.

Questions?

Fuel cut off, is it a simple switch, does it need to be switched once to
activate or doe it need to be held down. If its a specialist switch are they
a main dealer only part?

Is there any other electrical sensors and switches that forwhatever reason
would stop the supply of fuel?

anyone any ideas of things to try?  Its already cost him a fortune so we'd
all sooner try a few little thigs first before having to take things apart
again.

Cheers
