I was not able to detact error. I simply moved the original pump back to the engine to its original position and installed electric

First of all the z cars tank design isn't the best as I felt it needed a collector sump so it wouldn't suffer from fuel starvation round bends as much plus as I learnt running the fuel lines close to the coolant pipes isn't a good idea either especially in warm weather or traffic jams!!
It really needs a fuel swirl pot fed by s low pressure pump circulating fuel so it gets a constant supply an keep the lines away from heat sources as much as possible.
Hope you got it sorted?
