Thanks for your reply. The pump doesn't look like a factory fit and it is very noisy. As soon as the ignition key is turned on (prior to starting the engine) there is a very loud clicking noise from the pump which doesn't sound right to me.
I think I will replace all the rubber connections and cross over pipes under the bonnet as you suggest and replace the pump at the same time.
How do I find a replacement pump that is suitable? Clearly I want one that can pump enough diesel to the engine so that it isn't starved of fuel at high speed.
But what happens if I fit a pump that sends too much diesel through? How is it regulated and what happens to excess fuel?
