A blocked fuel filter can also kill a pump.
I've done a few primes to clean out the lines and such, and fuel filter seams ok. Yep you're right, maybe they know something I dont.

I didn't think there was a lift pump. No, I'm not sure if the accumulator is clean, to be honest not sure what it does so I didnt want to tamper with it haha. Looks like I'll have to give it a clean and see whats going on. Will also have a peak into the fuel tank and make sure its clean. Thanks for the idea!
