Hope you can help !

Have a '91 300GE and yesterday upon startup the engine turned over and then died. Starter engaged - battery etc all fine - plenty of petrol in the tank. BUT fuel was not getting through !

Tested fuel pump and that works - with direct wire - but power does not seem to be getting to the pump - wanted advice as to what to rule out next/first etc. Have checked fuses and relays all seem to click/work when ignition is switched to on - but not cranked.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Cheers.

Re: Fuel / Electric - start problem - RESOLVED

Just to update you that I tracked it down to the fuel pump relay.

Orig p/n 0035450005 was replaced by superceeded p/n 0035452405.

Got this through German and Swedish - £59+vat.

Cheers
