Thanks again, I'll have to check the fuel system externals and hope for the best regarding the internals of the tank.

I don't see the pump(s) capacity being an issue having in each instance been light on the throttle at the time, although something internal affecting pickup makes more sense as two curves and a raised level crossing moments before were involved.

I'll bear the CPS in mind as well if I get a fuller tank fail or can't find a fuel system prob.

A cunning plan has formulated on the nut for the tailgate strut stud, as the hole is in fact a slot in the rear pillar and I can't see an easy way in or up to poke a 'nut on a stick' - I am considering tapping a hole in a short strip of steel just under the slot width thick then manouvering this with a magnet or bit of wire through then behind the slot and then fit the stud with extreme force and a spot of loctite.

I'll let you know, plan B is to conecut a hole in from inside the boot (under the trim)

TVM again
