Im suspecting lift pump, the regulator cant come out as the threads are ruined so id need a new HP pump, may be an excuse to upgrade
I pushed that pipe back on and its been fine. It was my mech that said its quite a weak design compared to other manufacturers i.e vag used sealed filters and spring type clips. The ends of the plastic pipes that connect to the clips go brittle and start moving. May be due to wear and tear but im sure i can homebrew better.
I know a lad whos HDi wont start with the stock fuel filter but runs fine with an inline filter. Im going to do it in a few week and see if it makes a difference, then change the lift pump
Chris i cant run without a maf so i cant unplug to dignose performance issues. It feels fine now at the moment, im sure that pipe been disconnected was causing the problem
