Confirmed fuel pump?
I have a tool (home made) for getting the sender cap off if that helps, and some lessons learned if you need them |

Thanks for the link will try them if it comes to it although i see it says 2 sold.
I had the car recovered by a garage and have said to them if they're not up for trying to split the pump unit to get to the pump then drop it back on my drive, now i know what it is. But he said his labour to strip it is going to be cheaper than recovery back to my house. The 8 is in the sticks, where there are no buses.

I've told the mech at the garage i'm happy to do t but i think he wants to break it himself. I suppose thats fair he did find the fault it should be for him to break it first.
But do the how too anyway as it'll be good as a sticky. It was quite reassuring to see Land Rover’s and tractors around the workshop as they’re 4x4’s as well so they should know what they’re doing.
