Engine issue, can anyone help?

Covered this in pm's bud, the original cutting out was almost certainly down to the lift pump, and only the lift pump.

For anyone wondering what this is about; if you open your fuel filter housing and discover what looks like glitter at the bottom of the housing, don't replace the filter before flushing out all the bits of metal from the housing. Otherwise the bits of metal will flow through the HP (read fragile) side of your fuel system and result in one seriously expensive mess...

All the confusion in the PMs about what you were on about has finally cleared in that one paragraph. I now know what the sarcasm was for and what you were on about with competency!!

It's f*cked because he took the filter out to show me and put the filter back without clearing, therefore the 'glitter' had bypassed the filter and got in the rest of the system!!

Sorry mate. Should have asked for clarification at the time. +1
