Fuel pump

[Clements1953]

I have a Chimaera, 4.3 lt Rover V8. Some weeks ago I went to start it, it's not been standing too long, so ignition on - I did not hear the 'chug' of the fuel pump - engine cranking ok but not starting. I've since replaced the 2 30A relays, pump primer and ignition, and had the pump off and tested it off of the car and it appears to run ok. Does the relay have the resistor fitted internally, as, when I'm testing the pump off the car the resistor is not connected. Any ideas?, am I missing something fundamental.

Thanks...I can feel a click on 1 of the relays. I've metered the pump live and neutral and get a deflection at ignition on but that fades after a few secs. I've checked fuses - all are good.

Hi, I'm now at the check all wiring and connection stage so I could be a while...I'll let you know my findings
