It will be interesting to hear how you get on.

I still have a feeling it's due to your shut down timer, it's just strange that you turn the radio off and it works.

What brand of timer is it? is it a plug and play? or one of the 3 wire units?

[tassie wombat]

Arb/ bogaard plug and play.

[Yendor]

You could also try disconnecting it then.

Early update,diode didn't fix the problem,also tried disconnecting the timer for 10 mins,didn't work either,back to the drawing board !

I wonder if I could get the plug and play wiring changed so that when key is turned off it only powers the injector pump and nothing else??

Bugger, your troll's not playing nice.

Did you try the earth to the head unit?

It will cause problems with the fuel sub tank circuit.

well, run a separate earth wire straight from the battery to the earth on the stereo,and still no go,back to the drawing board,might just have to get used to turning off the stereo before jumping out of the car ??
