as you suspected the sender is not the same as the one on my pump, thanks to greenhouse vauxhall clough street hanley, your crap !!!!!

anyone got a diagram of the pump so i can try and workout what the sender type item is on the top of my pump,

spoke to swadlincote diesels near burton on trnet today, done work on a vectra some years back for me,
he has confirmed that the issue is the pump going faulty.

but as always pop it in for a bosch hookup and all for a cost of £42 + vodka and tonic.
then depends what we find as we may need to discuss with you further tests. lol

can anyone tell me if this fuel temp sensor is behind the square black box / cap on the side of the pump?

something else which maybe nothing or something, injector 1 nearest rad has oil in the bottom gathering, fairly sure i cleaned this up sometime ago, can't see oil running anywhere to drip into the injector well etc.
deff oil as i licked it lol.

also noticed on the injection pump two of the injector pipes looked dirty / damp / wet so cleaned all off with carb cleaner, i will check over the weekend if it has returned.

Heres the link.
The only thing I'll say is the fuel temp sensor is a factory fix (Bosch).Trust me been there done that
The plactic bit that holds the throttle control is also the temp sensor:y

Thats the fuel pump solinoid it's only to start/stop the engine.
There is a sensor at the base of the pump (black wire) this is the fuel qauntity this throws up code 34 and again this is a factory/diesel specialists fix :y

done the paperclip test and got two codes 12 & 96

my "My Naff Code Reader" keeps picking the 96 but not checked lately so 12 may be new but can't find what code 12 is?

i had three pipes on the wrong valve ports etc. hope i have them right now urrrrmmm
another thing i have been trying to code a s/h key from fleabay and had my lappy plugged in via "My Naff Code Reader", wasn't long before i needed to get a jump start off the mrs KA jeeez the embarssment or what. wonder if it is the battery not juiced enough????
OMG its a conspiracy making me go mad now, my meega is haunted i'm sure.
