Are all fuel lines & filters good ? If you underdo the main fuel line into the FI system (if fitted) you should have fuel forced out of the union if there's any pressure there

The pump should run then cut off. If it dosent then id say it was fuses or the relay rather than a seized pump.

Thank you gents: I'll try these when I next go to the lock-up & let you know. Appreciate your thoughts. Cheers.
