Punti 75SX Reluctant to start

Hi

My erratic running 96 75SX of which I originally suspected the ECU now doesn't always want to start.

When I turn the ignition on, unless I hear what I believe is the fuel pump quietly purring, the car won't fire up. The starter motor turns over with plenty of energy but fails to get the engine running.

After quite a few attempts I eventually hear the purring noise and the engine starts. This type of failure first occurred whilst out driving when the engine would cut out and refuse to start for a while. It only dawned on me that the restart was linked to what I believe might be the fuel working its way through.

Any suggestions anyone?

Thanks in advance

Rick
