    Munchki, the blog sounds like an excellent idea. sounds like you rally need to process and make sense of all you've been through.

    Hi All..

    Spent a little time on the car today to diagnose what went tits up and see If I had a spare....

    Well it took me 30 minutes to gather all the things to test the fuel pump (Including a lump of the wiring off a spare (but broken) wiring loom - just enough to test the fuel pump and a spare car battery (Yes My house is like a scrap yard :( - but im selling everything I can!) and put it on praying to hear it prime the system and it just be a wiring fault I need to find and solve..... But I had silence.

    I then tried the exact same trick on the project car which is almost finished to check it was the pump and not my test - and it primed up.

    This means the car needed a new fuel pump - and luckily after hours of searching I found one from a car I scrapped a couple years ago I hope works - So its a free repair tomorrow morning.

    Other than that - we took our DS to his second swimming session called aquanoughts today - and what can we say but it is amazing - I was in the water this week after DW had his first session last week - and he didnt even cough and splutter when we put him under the water for the first time!
