Default Car won't start, fuel pump? #2 :D

Ahhh hello everyone again...this car's doing a lot to be annoying lately.

Since the fuel pump relay swap it's been fine...few hundred miles / no probs starting / no running issues, thought i'd treat it to a clean...

Just finished manouvering it and parked up, went back and it sounds like a bag of nails, coughing spluttering at low revs flooring the throttle does nothing and it eventually dies. No EML or fault codes as yet.

There is a video if it works...

Does anyone have any ideas? Is it fuel pump related? it's fairly low on fuel now...and warmish from earlier use.

Many thanks in advance.

If its running rough but not dying completely I don't think its a fuel pump.. Have you scanned the car yet?
