Thanks for all your comments guys. I checked out Sweety's link earlier today and managed to read the fault code (unlike the RAC guy) - sure enough, 36 (Fuel shut off solenoid 1 - malfunction). Have wired it back to a switch on the dash for now until I can trace the fault - suspecting there may...

Further update - the malfunction light now stays on even when the engine is running. I put a voltmeter on the fuel cutoff switch on the back of the injection pump. It shows 10-11 volts when the ignition is first switched on, but after maybe 3-5 seconds it drops to zero and you can hear the...
