Been away for 2 weeks left the car unlocked thinking the battery would survive but suprise suprise it just turned over slowly! So decided to eventually wire in my Accumate that has been sitting in the garage for 2 months!
Anyway when I pulled the battery out I found 2 Bosch 30A relays in the wiring loom to the ECU, now the one connected to the blue plug has rusted and now has a hole in the outer cover. Ive looked in the bible and had a quick search but Iam not 100% what there both for or where to buy replacements??? I think one is fuel pump relay???
Any help appreciated as I'd like to replace them both just incase and I'll keep the old ones as spares.
Mike
And to make matters worse the sump gasket has gone from a light misting of oil on the pan to a pool of oil on the garage floormad

I think one is the main Ecu relay and one is the fuel pump relay

Bit more searching and that does seem to be the 2 I mean. Is the blue plug the ECU or fuel pump relay? Although struggling to find genuine Bosch ones most Ive found listed are aftermarket and the usual TVR places want stupid postage costs for 2 little relays and not sure they are even Bosch ones.
