Finally my X is running.

seller said it was an defected fuelpump.

so after replacing it, it still didnt run.

so i checked the relais again,
the ignition,

turns out: engine still aint getting fuel.
i checked the fuelpump again and it was working,
disconnected the fuel filter, and hadnt gotten a drop of petrol, it was bone dry.

so i started thinking again.

the old pump didnt had a filter attached to it,
so i powered the pump again and looked if it was pumping, after bypassed it around with an flexibel hose and it fired up.

so loooking at the stock fuellines, i found that they were clogged.

so running flexibel hoses now and have droven about 20kms today and no problems at all.

What's in it?

I'd be curious what the clog is made of.... Rubber hose, dirt, rust. I'd run air pressure through it till it came out
 






it was clogged with rust and gravel.

but since i've been working on it,
this is now my daily view of the X
