Bear in mind she's got a 2.5 Isuzu donkey in her

Looking for an inline pump for diesel, low pressure, something i can connect with fuel hose and jubliee clips.

Its for my turf burner, i think its suffering fuel starvation at higher engine speeds cause it cant suck it through from the tank.

Craig, its only a brain wave at the minute, she's always chugged around the 70mph mark, was down in Bangor during the week and it was worse than normal, when i stopped for diesel on the way home she wasnt just as bad, she does create a vacuum in the tank, but i have tried friving with the cap off and it makes little difference. So i'm thinking just a low pressure pump to help the fuel through the filter ect, probably mount it in the engine bay and feed it off the alternator so it only runs when the engine is running. Dont really want to spend more than about £20, so dont go mad looking lol
And yeah, its standard copper pipe up the floor and fuel hose at the filter, 3/8 i think.
If you've no joy with a door, there's a godo Pauxhall breakers up here, let me know how you get on
Thanks mate

Ok, got my hands on a low pressure pump and fitted it yesterday, it seems to be a bit more responcive, but will be a few days before i know if the fault is cured, fingers crossed
