How I like this "western" way how to repair car - replace whole car until it's fine

BW2309 do u know, what happens if this non return valve [actually, hydrotransformator] fails?

This is what actually happens with my car - I'm cranking my engine, it start's for half second, then it stalls, I'm still cranking, after 3-5 secs it's finally running. And, also, ticking sound from place, where is fuel pump assembly located [B3 sedan] - from hydrotransformator.
If fuel pump sound can't be heared, it means nothing. It can also mean just fuel pump in very good condition - I can't forget, that british don't drive with their cars

- at last when u look on unbelievable mileage for 20 year old and older cars and u can't believe it's not fake

If someone would say "my 20 years old audi have 200-300miles on clock", yeah, it's avarage LHD mileage for 10 years

Because on my 20 year old 3A was main bearings gone, I would presume it has 500k kms or more in past

Whatever, I just wanna say - I have fuel pump, that can be heared not only with engine off, but also while it's iddling and car is stopped and radio isn't turned on

And this is too fckin common sight of B3's - it looks to me that half of injected B3's have very loud fuel pump

Here in latvia, of course, not UK. And if author of the topic wants verify, does he's pump is running or not, there is some simple ways, how to do it. One of them - disconnect incoming fuel hose from injection head [I have there 17mm bolt], dry it, then turn ignition on and look - is there fuel or not, and how much. U can also try to crank, for very short moment. Only after that this bolt must be tightened with brains - this head is made of aluminium

My favourite way - tighten, then theck, if it doesn't leak fuel, if it does, tighten it a bit more.

Btw - is this common sight - KV engines in B3 for britain?

Looks like for germans there was only NG for 5cyl 10v

[excluding rare PS 2.0 10v engine]
