Oh, didn't think they were different in the classics. Unless the one out of my bugeye wasn't the original...

I thought classic fuel pump is better than a standard bugeye or blob eye but I'm proberly wrong. Another idea is ur alarm cutting the problem for it to start maybe if u got 1.

Pump can be made to fit either way .
Can you hear the pump priming ?
If not the immobiliser is f'd .
If your not sure take the seats out to hear

Would it be worth taking pipe of at the fuel filter and catch it in a tub thats in engine bay and see if the fuel comes threw as u turn ignition then u know if pump is working just a thought. That's what I would try or that won't work. Women had it that problem the other week while I was filling up in a shell garage she filled her focus and paid she came out and tried to leave it turned over but would not start so I asked if she put the right fuel in as first thing I asked she said yes so popped the bonnet up and listened while she turned over at the end fuel pump fuse blew so change it start but advise her to get it checked cos it was not her first time it done it
