has your fuel, boost been tweeked?? there is a tiny filter in the injector pump that can fill with wax, coz of more fuel. blow it out and hey presto, flat gone, well on my gu any way. iv started running a in line filter between the tank and fuel filter to take care of most of this. hope it helps

yeah, same as mine. its hard to explain ill get some photos up 2 show you. but its a banjo bolt on top of the fuel pump, acessable from the top towards the front, if you undo it pull the bolt out, there is a small spring, pull that out. then dig a small screwdriver down the hole and with a bit of persistance it will come out. it s like a small thimble . hope it helps
