Very peculiar - it is something that in fifty years of car ownership I have never come across. Picture this scenario - turn on ignition, no petrol gauge reading, crank car with key but will not start, but there is spark from coil to distributor. Fuel pump working, but did not check for flow.
Next scenario - all of a sudden, gauge working, car fires and runs nicely, but as soon as the BRAKE PEDAL is applied, the engine stops, the gauge no longer works, and the car will not re-start. In other words, applying the brake pedal renders the fuel supply non-existent. Is there anyone outthere in TK land that would like to suggest a remedy ? As I said, I have never come across this before. Regards Styria
N.B. I need to correct the last sentence of the first paragraph - on reflection, I am quite sure that the fuel pump was not working. Sorry about that.
