Hi I was wondering if someone could help me troubleshoot this. I have a V Reg Corsa B 1.0 litre which seems to start a lot better when there is very little petrol in the tank. I filled it half way the other day and to start it I have to turn the key while depressing the accelerator in a revving action. This is only really a problem after a stall as the engine doesn't start easily after a stall. I know it isn't the battery as its a new battery and I only have a problem when the tank has more petrol in it. I've also very recently had a service where all fluids, oil and filters were replaced along with new spark plugs. One guess I have heard is that it could be a problem with the fuel pump. I was wondering if anyone had any other guesses and could possibly give me a general guess of how much it'll cost me to get fixed.

Thanks a lot
