Filled up with fuel, went back to start my T16 engined +4, engine turned over fine a number of times, but noticed no sound from fuel pumps. Left it for 5 mins it then started OK. Any ideas of the problem (Did all the normal things - kicked the tyres, opened the bonnet and looked at the engine, started to look up breakdown number etc. etc)

Couple of possibilities.
Intermittent fuel relay.
Immobiliser, if fitted. I have twice had my '98 spin over on starter at normal speed, but not start. Ignition off. Enable immobiliser for 30 seconds, then off. Starts first turn of key afterwards.
Cheers,

Cheers, Welcome. I find with my T16 that the same thing that Graham reports sometimes. I also have noticed that if I turn the key to first position & wait for the fuel pump it floods & doesn't start. Mine at least needs to be just turned straight over unlike my other cars & I sometimes forget. Were are you based WOX9? John
