ahh ive been having a similar problem never thought to look in there! mine would run for say 30 minutes, then start to splutter then get worse untill it would finaly die. no fuel being returned as above, wait 5 minutes and it would be okay to carry on for a few more miles, its had me stumped for weeks. and the cars now off the road for winter repairs. bah!

Thats exactly what mine is doing oly it only lasts for about 10 mins. how do you go about cleaning it. And is there any chance it could be anything else
