Was reading your posts in relation to DME on porsche and youseemed to know your porsches, i am a very worried new to the porsche scene boxter owner, i bought the car last night and she drove superb!! about 8 miles down the road on the way home i noticed under acceleration every now and then it would hold back then seem to clear and then take off, it did this a few times but seemed to keep clearing itself. Eventually about 2 miles later i was sitting in traffic and the car backfired or popped as a car would do thats running out of fuel and stalled, at the side of the road it would turn over and tick over lumpyish but if the accelerator was touched it would just stall or try to rev but could not as if no fuel?? i had the AA man come out he plugged in diagnostics and nothing came up so not engine management and the air flow meter or mass whatever and coils are all fine he said that he could not here the fuel pump prime whilst holding his ear to the tank also that the relay in the footwell is not clicking off as you would expect so he guessed at a fuel pump relay or fuel pump?? bit worried as he did not know where the engine was for ten mins or the fuel tank!! just dont want to waste money any ideas??? thanks chris
