Fuel pump relay is the first point of call. These are quite a common failure. Held in by one 8mm nut behind the battery box.________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

I had the exact same issues about a year ago and I ended up replacing relay and pump, then turned out to be the immobiliser at fault.Stan, could it be possible that going over a bump could break the relay? As I hot a bump in the road and it died basically straight away. ________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |

Chris, from hitting a bump in the road and the car cutting straight away I would say that was more the inertia fuel cut off switch being activated rather than a failed relay.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
