    So I have spent weeks sorting out a suspension problem and I think I have finally sorted it out.

    Now that it is sorted out I noticed something this morning, and having had a chance to dig around yet.

    From a cold start the motor revs up to about 1.5k and starts to fade back down. However I am hearing an audible *click* from the gas tank. It does not do it after warmed up, and I have power cycled the car and it has not returned.

    Am I correct to assume my fuel pump is going out? or is there something else I should be looking at. Mind you I have not done the fuel pump rewire...

    every 30 seconds until it hits running temp... then goes away for a day... (or shut down for an extended period of time.. ie 8+ hours)
