Starting problems from cold.

I wish I'd been more thorough in my original post.

Managed to find info about the sedimenter at the beginning of my troubles.  So i cleaned that out.

I remember seeing something about lift pumps to avoid.  I 'think' I need to be looking for a Delphi one. Is that right?. Lots of on line retailers don't list the make.  Is there a price difference?

Thanks for the help so far.  I don't think I've missed anything else out.

I got mine from Paddock and I think it was Delphi. Has been on there for the best part of a year now with no problems, Paddock don't quote a brand on their site so it may be worth phoning the order in.

So I finally got round to fitting the new lift pump and...

It still wont start properly.

After running the engine for a few mins and then checking to see fuel was going through all right there was a large amount of pressure from the bleed screw on top of the filter?  Is this normal?

I thought the battery could just be low so while it was charging off came the air con pump so I could check the hoses right to the injector pump.  The pipes and the unions are all clear so i don't know where this build up of pressure is coming from.

There does seem to be a ticking noise coming from the top of the pump.  could it be ion the way out?  Is there any explanation for the high pressure?

An advice is gratefully received.  I'd quite like to sort this out before the mornings get too cold...

Thanks
