Vectra 2001 1.8 fuel pump - markj2210
Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has had this problem?

I have a Y reg vectra 1.8 petrol that starts to hesitate when the fuel gets down to about a quarter of the tank?

Is this likely to be a problem with the fuel pump? If so, why only when it gets down to a quarter?

Thanks

Mark
