				This arvo at about 5pm my mate called me cause his car was dead, wouldn't start and he couldn't drive home from work.
We diagnosed it as a dead fuel pump.
Nothing for it but to tow it all the way home with the trusty L series...
Damn unreliable later models!

				haha i though i better check out what you are saying about my poor wrx 
good timing really , 5:00pm on a friday it breaks down , good a time as any i guess but i found a walbro for a ok price on the saturday and chucked it in with no probs.
on the plus side i saved fuel on the drive home that day

and you took it.
