more head scratchin news
just had a conversation about the pump with a firm called city electro here in cardiff
he seemed to know about the lucas epic, he even asked me what model i had 1,2 or three
said that it didnt have a bolt on stop solenoid but something called an activator
which is buried in the pump
he talked about the housing wearing, then the pressure when the engine is switch off would bypass the activator hence my overrun
he also said that the pump/ecu would need to be reprogrammed
how much i ask
£500
:shock::shock:

I didn't know there was 1,2 or 3 types...I wonder what the differences are?? either fix any other probs, mot it and flog it or look for a replacement pump off a scrappy praps? That's a tough call mate and I don't envy your position on this one. Sounds harsh but maybe scrap the motor, keep the wheels and leather and find another one to transplant your bits into....
....There he goes, one of God's own prototypes, a high powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production......too weird too live.....and too rare to die

Ahhh, now this I didn't know!
I know the EPIC was remapped and reworked very late in the production run of the S2 XM but had no idea they reworked it THAT much..
You could of course throw the EPIC in the bin and wham a Bosch mechanical pump on?

Or buy this one...there's lots of information/history about it. I think it's the engine size you require
