Hi all
Aussie Stu again
Ok I went to a car show on the weekend, weather was warm but not volcanic say 29 degrees C outside, car parked under a shady gum tree
So car sat there for three hours, time to go, went to start and it coughed and died
I thought it was crud in fuel filter again, but no
Then I felt the pump, it was very very warm probably hot
I cooled it down with ice and it started???
Any ideas gang
It's a mitsubishi one' usually very reliable, I have a new SU sitting there but have never needed it
Do. Electronic pumps get and or stay hot in the boot, um sorry, I mean trunk could it be a wiring issue, don't want it catching fire
Any thoughts appreciated
Cheers
Stu
PS 29 degrees C = 84 F
