since yesterday cant get my sport to run properly. think its something to do with the fueling but not sure. if i start it with the accelerator to the floor it sometimes starts and wil rev to about 1k then slowly start to die even with my foot to the floor.
any thoughts?

cheers, but seems a bit weird for to just stop working. i only used the car about 6 hours before and it was fine.
could dodgy sidelight wiring cause it to somehow short. anyone know the symbol for the fuel pump on the fuse cover?

i'd say an earth, but the reason i think it's your fuel pump is, that it doe's start, then just dies out, if an earth or wiring problem, you wouldn't even get it started.

someone wanted my original lights so sold them n made my own wiring for an old pair of depo's and pushed the ends of the wires into the plug because they were cut instead of being unplugged for some reason. the lights work fine but if the car shakes to much the wires fall out and may occasionally touch each other.
