My Classic was running like a bag of ****e today and I'd noticed the pipe off the dump valve was perished and split. I have now replaced this with a new piece of pipe and now it won't start. It's turning over and trying to fire. Any ideas anyone. Bit of a long shot I know but any help would be appriciated.

Cheers

i had sort of the same problem however nothing to do with the dump valve mine jus started to idle low and then all of a sudden wouldn't start took it to subaru garage and was told the fuel pump was buggered and cost me a bit to sort out. don't know if that maybe the problem with yours but it seems quite a few classics are having this problem

Nice one cheers mate. I'll try a fuel pump then. It does seem like the same problem you had with the low ildleing and now nothing. How much was the fuel pump?

Cheers.

Mind didnt the same, started cutting out then wouldnt start at all.

Do you hear the fuel pump prime when turning the ignition on?

AA man hit my tank with a hammer to get me going.

you can get uprated ones for around 85 quid.

I haven't noticed when I terun the ignition on. I'll have a look later. Do you know if they're easy to fit?

Cheers.
