Ok just spent another hour trying to start it. Did and checked all that was said above. Even fitted new line from bottom of chassis to carb with new filter. Still nothing coming through. Guessing its the pump then. :(

If you disconnect the fuelpipe at the bottom of the chassis, does fuel come out then?

That would definately work. Poping pipes of card are the way forwards! ;)

You disconnected the pipe at the chassis under the front wing and no fuel comes out? But it does if you suck?

It needs to run out, no dripping. As long as you keep the end of the fuel line lower than the tank.

maybe the gauze (is there one) on the pipe that goes into the tank is blocked
