My car has intermittent starting problems that are getting worse. My local dealer has suggested that it is the low pressure fuel pump that sits in the fuel tank. Has anybody else encountered similar problems and, if so, how did you solve it? Is it an easy task to replace the fuel pump myself?

not as easy as fixing the rule length on your news reader but it is an fairly easy job

before starting your car in the morning try squeezing the fuel primer bulb a few times until it get difficult to squeeze. Then try to start the car, see how you go and post back.

The Bosch system doesn't, but the Siemens system does, as it doesn't have a low pressure pump in the tank.
