Success the collar would not budge but I got a junior hacksaw blade and carefully started cutting into the collar from the top gradually working my way round to the side then I hit the collar with a flat edge screwdriver and hammer that resulted in the collar giving way downside it needs a new collar upside the new pump comes with the collar or you can buy separately on EBAY mission accomplished tank was showing 1/4 when I looked inside it was 9/10 full no more guessing 😀
 
Keep hold of the old pump

It's rare but not unknown for one to fail

At least it will get the car going again until a new one can be found
Thanks koaler yes I will keep it the new one is arriving later today if it doesn't clear the problem it only cost £41 brand new delivered so not a lot of money I'm useless at electrics especially on cars so I might just leave it alone for now its had a new clutch fitted next month cambelt change oil change tyres are good runs lovely I'm just going to do rust prevention myself on the underside and leave it at that

Koala you will probably know this I've noticed the pump has springs on either side of the pump when I pressed the top down it all compressed what's that all about
