Might just let the sparky trace it. Hate wiring faults. Guaranteed to be something stupid though.
Any more ideas???

Found the problem. Clip had broken that holds the fuel pump loom against flooor under car. Loom had dropped down and was sitting on top of the exhaust. The main feed was almost totally burnt through. Just need to cut and rejoin wire and should be fine...

Heres a pic once the loom ws pulled inside the car..
