irritating problem - not fuelling?

[nightmare]

Hi All,

poxy car. Has developed an 'issue' which is a litle random.

In brief....drive the car someonewhere and then try and restart it within, say, an hour. The engine catches immediately but then dies. It acts like it isn't geting fuel. Following the engine dying you can hear a pump whirring away like mad over left shoulder. Im guessing that's the fuel pump....maybe. Only happes when the car has been recently driven (maybe still warm?) and will randomly restart during my hitting the steering wheel and calling it names....

Any thoughts anyone?!

time for that exige methinks

Could be a knackered relay or dodgy fuel pump I guess. Had a problem with my first S1 where a relay had water ingress and caused similar issues. Cheap and quick fix to try first.
