Got a problem with my car....
Hard to start when its been sat a while (like overnight), sometimes will splutter and die then need restarting fine when its not been sat for a while.
Car stinks of petrol inside after I have driven a few miles
No fuel coming back through the return line on the pump,
Using more fuel than usual,
If I leave the fuel cap on after a few miles it will piss petrol out the breather in the front side drivers arch.
Ive tried a different petrol pump and a new FPR, Im stumped, any ideas?

All that sits above the pump is the two pipes and the round metal cover .
