Think my relay is located near the glovebox on my conversion. Only way to test is to get to wires and use a voltmeter to see whats getting what. Test the wires going to your pump - if no power is getting there its deffo the relay.

i done what u said, no fuel came out so it must be a fuel pump problem. How would i go about checking if its the actual pump or the realy or the wiring? were is the relay located?

sounds like a fuel pump problem. Is the relay working? My guess is that it isnt, it started - drank the little bit of fuel in the lines and then cut out as fuel is not being delivered. Quick test is to find the valve on the fuel rail near the throttle cable stop, unsecrew the cap and press the valve in (be carefull fuel should squirt out at relatively high pressure so wear goggles etc) its the same sort of valve as a car tyre valve, if no fuel comes out it a fuel pump problem. Either the pump has packed in or the relay or the wiring is bad...
