is there a fuse for the fuel pump cos i was thinking that maybe that was the probem i looked at the fusebox but it doesnt tell you which fuse is for what , it just says the numbers
if there is a fuse for the fuel pump could you let me know which fuse it is
id be very grateful thanks mate paul  

Answer
Hey there paul, I'm not sure which fuse os for the fuel pump, but it will tell you in your owners manual, if you don't have one then i will check mine and let you know tomorrow.  You can just as easily take a test light and touch both ends of the fuse on the top of it when it is pluged in and see if it lights up, if it doesn't then pull the fuse and visually look at it and see if it is burned out.  Listen for the fuel pump to make a wining sound when you try to start the car.  If it doesn't then your fuel pump may be bad.  I'll check on that fuse for you in a bit and let you know.
