The other night my SPI van died while i was out in her. now it is turning over but just wont start. I am using a Polo fuel pump and it was very hot when i checked it and there was no fuel in the pipe that goes to the engine so i presume it was the pump that is broke as i have power to the pump and its earthed correctly. However there is no whiring noise when i turn the key so could it be the relay instead As a new Polo pump is over £200 so i want to eliminate all possable faults first.

cheers in advance
