Car struggled to start today then cut out and wouldn't start at all, narrowed it down to fuel even though could hear the pump priming there was no pressure up front, took pump out only to find the hose I used which was supplied with the pump had pretty much dissolved whilst being immersed in the tank for the last 4 months, luckily I kept the original pump and hose so just swapped hoses, just wondered if anyone else has had this problem or if it was a one off?

Check your fuel filter and pump as well, that disintegrated pipe had to go somewhere.

2 years running walbro on current car never had a problem with that and previous car for 4years never had an issue with them.

I changed filter and cleaned pick up filter etc, probably just a one off dodgy hose then, was just a bit worrying as seen a few threads lately relating to premature pump failure etc.
