Isn't it a case of getting the track on the ecu pcb resolvers to have it working properly? Sure that's all these dead fuel pumps come down to? :-\

I am sure that these are now alot cheaper to refurbished than they were many moons ago when such cars just got scrapped. It has to be worth getting. Is it just an assumption of dead pump?

New FIP is around £1400 for the part.  If its the electronics that's failed, they can often (but not always) be refurbed for £300ish, but removal of the module is tricky.

Even it if it electronic, if its been cranked without fuel (thought to be frequent cause of electronic fault) , there is chance of extreme mechanical wear in FIP.

Knowledge is power.  Best case is £300ish if you can remove and refit electronic module yourself. £1400 plus fitting is worse case.

Armed with worst case, you can negotiate ;)
